I keep getting notifications through Authenticator asking me to approve or deny a login, which tells me that someone is trying to access my account, even after I change my password. What can I do to stop this?

The problem is described well enough in the title. I’ve been getting notifications from Authenticator at random times, even after I change my password on my email account, and I have used the option to log out of everywhere. What can I do?
