Stop watching Battery Health. It will drive you crazy. If you are that upset over a 1% drop in a week, you will go crazy. Check it only if you experience a problem with the battery. Check it around 6 months, then 8 months. If you get below 80%, then you need a battery replacement, but you certainly don't need one at 99%. It should only be checked if the battery appears to be having a problem charging.
