Hello. My battery health is getting worse. I bought my phone in July. Only in 4 months it's maximum capacity decreased 7%. My friend bought her iphone same time with me and her phone's battery health is 100%. I don't use my phone while charging it, I don't leave overnight my phone while it's charging. I charge it until 100%.

Battery health will decrease. There is no way to prevent that. Unless you use your phone in exactly the same way and in exactly the same places as your friend, with identical apps and settings, your experience will not be the same.
Best practice is to put your phone on charge overnight. That way, if you have it connected to WiFi and the screen is locked, it will automatically back up to iCloud. And it will be ready to go in the morning. It doesn't matter if you charge the phone to 100% or 50% every time you charge it.
