research The Investigation of Minoxidil-Induced Ca2+ Rises and Non-Ca2+-Triggered Cell Death in PC3 Human Prostate Cancer Cells
Minoxidil increases calcium levels and kills prostate cancer cells independently of calcium.

research Dihydrotestosterone and 5α-Reductase: Role in Hair Loss and Prostate Health
Dihydrotestosterone and 5α-Reductase play a role in hair loss and prostate health, and finasteride can increase hair growth in men without affecting sperm production, but it doesn't work for postmenopausal women with hair loss.
