You can change it as often as you want. Some people have had problems changing the address when they use their iCloud address as their Apple ID.


Apple hasn’t published any guidance for using the same address again. Normally, if your e-mail address was associated with an ID in any way, then it can't be reused with another Apple ID for approximately one year. I have also seen posts that stated Apple told them there was a 30 day waiting period before the address could be used again.  You will need to get another e-mail address to use as your Apple ID or you can try waiting 30 days to see if that works.
