The 800 metres world champion had announced a comeback, following her long absence since the Berlin world championships last August, which brought her gender into question.
"We have had a meeting with Caster and her coach on Tuesday night, where we discussed the rules of the IAAF relevant to this particular case," said Richard Stander, assistant administrator at ASA.
