The screenshots shown in Ait Aoudia's reporting are unverified. Snopes reached out to the doctors and hospitals associated with the alleged reports. They either did not respond or would not, as a matter of policy, confirm their authenticity or if Khelif was ever a patient of theirs. Ait Aoudia did not provide Snopes with any details of his source(s).

Is this not enough to stop you from going around claiming she's a male?

Why would it? Note that nobody is saying that the leak is fake or edited. The silence is deafening, but also not the only evidence. There's another undisputed leak the confirms the same:

And the IOC itself saying that it's a DSD case:

In total, there are exactly zero people saying "Khelif is female based on medical records", and several different people saying "Khelif is male based on medical records", combined with the IOC stating that it's a DSD issue, which means that Khelif is male. Khelif could remove all doubt with a simple, cheap, non-invasive sex test, so why hasn't that happened?

the IOC stating that it's a DSD issue

The IOC did not state this, they just conflated DSD with transgender in the initial statement. Why do you keep saying the leaks are undisputed? Read my initial quote about Snopes trying to corroborate the claims and being unable to.

What doubt is there exactly, you're pretty convinced that they're a male with nothing but conjecture, smoke and mirrors.
