You should be adding weight every week so it should never be comfortable. If your strength stops increasing then it’s time to change something

Luckily for you exercise science has a list of options to change.

Yes it’s good to switch things up. No it doesn’t have to be every month. It can just be one little thing.

FITT-VP

Frequency Intensity Type Time Volume Progression

You can switch any one or all of the above up and you’re good.

Frequency: hit a lagging body part more often. You can even keep total volume the same. Just hit more times.

Intensity: Increase weight, drop reps. Decrease weight, add reps. Several options here.

Type: endurance, strength, power. Pick something to focus on with a body part.

Time: decrease rest breaks or add depending.

Volume: add a set here and there to increase total volume.

Progression: add weight and try to hit same reps as before.

And then you can just try new exercises that target to same thing. Experiment around. Listen to your body

You could do either one of these two things....

Switch up your program WHILE ALSO progressing in how much your lifting

Or you could stick with the same program and also progress in weight

Progressive overload

Count calories and focus on diet. If you are counting calories, count macros. Take creative supplements when you’re maxing out.

Don’t need to change routine every 1-2 months that’s absolute horse shit.

If you feel stale focus on something lagging. Push Pull Legs is a pretty good one for any body, beginner or no
