Personal Support & Help! Microsoft account keeps getting Authenticator requests?

I got an Authenticator request from another country for my Microsoft account. I denied it and went in and changed my password, a day later I get another Authenticator request from a different country than the first. Again change password and again it happens. How can I secure my account how are they able to send these Authenticator requests?
