You have an iPhone 12 which is over 3 years old. Battery Health is already affected. The iPhone battery is a consumable product and will get degrade as time elapses no matter what you do. Yes, you can charge it again and again as you need it and the iPhone will manage the amount of charge going to it through iOS.


What is the Battery Health of your iPhone? Open Settings  Battery  Battery Health and let us know which percentage you see for Maximum Capacity. Also note what is written under Peak Performance. If your battery's Maximum Capacity shows a value of 80% or less, then it has gone through its lifecycle and therefore should be replaced, according to Apple.
