Not really as until the last few years I had always been taking a quartered Proscar (or quartered generic 5mg) every day and kind of forgotten I was taking it.

I'm getting older now though, so might try weaning down a bit.

I've since swapped from 1.25mg ED to the Standard 1mg ED, but doubt I will lose any gains if I went down to 0.75mg a day.

the next step after that would be taking 0.75mg every other day, but so not sure about that yet.

It all sounds like a small differences, but if the results stay the same I could probably get away with quite a bit less than the 10mg I was getting through every 8 days while on Proscar.
Id say when someone finds a sweet spot that works with minimal side effects is good to reduce slowly over time as androgen receptors decrease with age so in theory DHT should also reduce naturally.
