Finasteride 1mg for 7 months - morning erections reduced to 50%, should I switch to EOD dosing?

Erectile Dysfunction

Been on finasteride 1mg daily for about 7 months for genetic hair loss (AGA). Hair has improved significantly. Recently noticed morning erections are down to roughly 50% of what they used to be. Libido is fine, sexual thoughts normal, arousal works fine - issue is specifically morning wood.

Considering switching to EOD (every other day) dosing. Has anyone done this? Did hair loss resume or stay maintained? Did sexual side effects improve?

29M, Indian. Planning to see a dermatologist soon but wanted real experiences first.
