Your battery is not draining fast. Your battery is very normal.
On average, battery health will decline about 1% for every 25 charge cycles. You have a lot of charge cycles for only about 3 months of use.
So, your battery has had about 100 charge cycles at this point.
100 divided by 25 = 4%. So, it would be normal to expect that your battery would be at 96% at this time.
So, stop worrying about the battery. Replace the battery when it is down to 80%.

You purchased your iPhone 107 days ago. You used 98 cycles. That is nearly one cycle per day! That is enormous usage.
”You complete one charge cycle when you’ve used (discharged) an amount that represents 100% of your battery’s capacity*— but not necessarily all from one charge. For instance, you might use 75% of your battery’s capacity one day, then recharge it fully overnight. If you use 25% the next day, you will have discharged a total of 100%, and the two days will add up to one charge cycle.”
The above is from:

By contrast, I use my iPhone 15 Pro quite a bit. I’ve had it for 221 days. I have used 70 cycles.
