South African gold medallist Caster Semenya says she is not comfortable with the fame she has acquired since her championship title was obscured by gender test revelations.

In an interview Semenya said people now want to stare at her.

The IAAF is currently reviewing gender test results to determine if Semenya is eligible to compete as a woman.

The athletics body has refused to confirm or deny Australian media reports that the tests indicate Semenya has both male and female organs.

A decision is expected to be announced next Friday.
