hey all! i've had this mini monstera for about 4 years and over the last month or two it's gotten a huge bald spot and yellow leaves that i keep pruning. i've checked for thrips and other pests but can't find anything. does anyone have an idea what's happening? and should i just chop the healthy vines and propagate her?

first pic is from june, second and third are from today
