Peach trees need to be pruned and thinned well to produce fruit. If your tree is at least 3 years old and it carries the immature fruit throughout the season, that may be your problem. Here is more information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/peach/peach-tree-thinning.htm ^[1]

If it’s dropping the small fruit too early, check for small scars on the fruit. You may have an insect infestation. Neem oil (sold as fruit tree spray) will help.
