I just troubleshooted my plant with Dr. Planta and the diagnosis was under watering. I already repotted her on Monday since the leaves started dropping and now the treatment plan says to water it again. the top layer is dry but the roots are still feel damp, and the moisture meter says dry. should i even attempt to water it again? and since the leaves dropped will they grow back in the same spot or do i need to prune to encourage new growth?
some plants take a bit longer to bounce back, let it recoup for awhile and don’t water again until fully dry and it should perk up. once it’s back is when you can look into pruning

If the roots still feel wet I’d hold off on more watering. Rehydrating can take time, so be careful to avoid overwatering it. If it helps I had a similar plant and it had also gotten pretty bare at one point, but has bounced back and regrown it’s leaves, so given the right care and patience yours should hopefully recover too. Best of luck.
