Iasmin Lucindo has been suspended for nine months after failing a drug test last year, Combat Sports Anti Doping (CSAD) announced on Wednesday.

The UFC strawweight testing positive for the banned anabolic agent mesterolone in an out-of-competition sample collected on Sept. 24, 2025 in Feira de Santana, Brazil. That resulted in Lucindo being pulled from a proposed clash against Gillian Robertson on Dec. 13. Lucindo and her team blamed the failed test on a tainted supplement.

“Throughout CSAD’s investigation, the evidence collected indicated that Lucindo Bezerra did not intentionally use mesterolone to gain a performance advantage,” read a statement from CSAD.
