I have definitely not been diagnosed with prostate cancer. nonetheless, i would like to know whether there is anything that males can do to minimize the risk of developing the disease?

A few things: Check your PSA regularly. Ask your doctor about the use of finasteride which can inhibit the onset of prostate cancer. Treat any abnormality of your urinary tract right away. Drink plenty of fluids every day.
