I don't know the degree to which that's been proven. I've seen some misleading articles and posts whose content mentions one specific aspect where there was no advantage and frame it as there being no advantage across the board.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9331831/ paints a different picture. Muscle mass and blood efficiency were lower in adults with reduced testosterone, but if the individual continued exercising their muscle mass was still higher than cis women, and other aspects like skeletal structure were unaffected by adult testosterone levels.
