"She cooperated fully with CSAD's investigation, including submitting to a detailed interview and providing official government documentation from a Brazilian pharmacy where she obtained compounded dietary supplements prior to the adverse finding. The documentation indicated that the pharmacy regularly compounded products containing mesterolone and could not rule out the possibility that legal dietary supplements provided to Lucindo Bezerra may have been inadvertently contaminated with mesterolone."
"Lucindo Bezerra's testing history also supported low-level exposure to mesterolone. She provided a negative sample in August 2025, as well as a negative sample in October 2025 in Abu Dhabi, UAE, before she was notified of the adverse finding. The estimated concentration of mesterolone in her September sample was minimal. However, because she had already used up some of the supplements obtained from the Brazilian pharmacy, CSAD was unable to definitively conclude that the low-level adverse finding resulted from a contaminated supplement."
Iasmin Lucindo received a nine-month suspension after testing positive for the banned anabolic agent mesterolone in an out-of-competition sample collected on Sept. 24, 2025, in Feira de Santana, Brazil. The positive test caused removal from a proposed fight against Gillian Robertson on Dec. 13. Lucindo and her team blamed a tainted supplement. CSAD found evidence indicating she did not intentionally use mesterolone and noted full cooperation, including interviews and pharmacy documentation showing the pharmacy regularly compounded products containing mesterolone. Lucindo provided negative samples in August and October 2025. The September concentration was minimal, but CSAD could not definitively prove contamination. She is eligible to return in June.
