PyQt emulate minimize button "_"

How can I minimize window in PyQt the same way as when _ is pressed?

I use 

self.showMinimized()

It really minimizes window.
But there is no refocus to the previous window. As if focus is still on minimized window.

How can I minimize and refocus to the previous window as if minimize button _ is pressed?

(Copying Qiao's comment as an answer:)

I solved my problem with showNormal() and then showMinimized() once again.
