Athletics Kenya Vice President Paul Mutwii said the 19-year-old Wambui withdrew from the world championships after failing to take a mandatory testosterone level test.
Under the IAAF's policy, which came into effect on May 8, all DSD athletes would have to reduce their blood testosterone levels for a continuous period of at least six months, and maintain those levels continuously for the rest of their athletic career, if they want to compete internationally at middle-distance events.
An excess of testosterone has been found to increase muscle mass within females and cause increased strength, stamina and physical energy. The IAAF believes DSD athletes have a competitive advantage.
