Can you take the bottom piece off the pot and let it drain out properly and dry out a bit?

Might be worth taking a look at the roots to see if any rot has started. Also a good opportunity to amend the soil if needed. Meaning adding things that will allow the roots to breathe a little more like perlite, bark, charcoal chunks. I have found Monsteras do better in chunky soil that drains very well and doesn't stay damp for too long. Good luck!!
