Why is my monstera’s leaf like this?? The whole plant is fine. And the new leaf that’s coming in, is also yellow.

How often are you watering? Is the soil draining? I was going to say with the solid one. It was just rising old leaves. With the new one being yellow it could be other things. Have you checked for root rot?

I have not check but I Will. Thank you for responding!

Are you sure thats a new leaf? It looks like it could just be the sheath that protected the leaf before it.
