Studies show that overweight and obesity can affect male fertility. In addition, thyroid function also is associated with the alteration of testicular function, however, the physiological role of thyroid hormones in the regulation of male reproductive system is not yet clear. At 21 days of age, male rats were handled diet containing different concentrations of soy oil until the age of 30 and 60 days, the control group (C30 n=6 , C60 n=6), received a diet containing 7% and the high fat groups (HL30 n=6 , HL60n=6), received diet containing 19 % of this oil. At the end of each period, the animals were assessed by DXA (Absorptiometry X - ray Dual energy) and sacrificed by exsanguination. To assess changes in the structure of the testis and thyroid tissue morphology and stereological were performed. In plasma for determine the hormonal e biochemist profile were evaluated, triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, VLDL, glucose and albumin by colorimetric assay and leptin, insulin, T4 , T3 , TSH and testosterone by radioimunoassay (RIA) . To demonstrate the expression of androgen receptor (AR) in testis, imunohistochemistry was performed with anti-AR. During the experimental period, body weight, food intake and body length were analyzed, and remained unchanged. Lean mass was lower at 30 days in the HL group, since the body fat total was higher in the same group, after 60 days, no difference was noted between the groups. In HL group at 30 days no difference was noted, and in same group at 60 days, the weight of the epididymis, liver and visceral fat remained higher. The biochemist profile in HL group at 30 days, there are no differences and at the 60 days in same group the level of glucose remained high. For hormonal dosages at 30 days in HL group, TSH and leptin were increased and T3 reduced, at 60 days in the same group, T3 and leptin were increased. Stereological and morphometric in the group Hl at 30 days, data show increases of number of seminiferous tubule and length density (Lv). At 60 days in the same group there are decreased of number of seminiferous tubule and diameter. The expression of androgen receptor (AR), in testis no differences are seems between the groups independent of the ages of consumption of diet. The fat diet promoted metabolic changes at 30 days and changes in the morphology of thyroid and testicular tissue at both ages, indicating an influence on reproductive function.
