I'm not sure if you have it inside or outside, but houseplants can be sensitive to being moved to a different location inside, which affects light. They are susceptible to the common household pests but you say you don't see anything. Another concern might be root rot. Make sure you are not overwatering.

It is my understanding that these plants regularly drop leaves in order to produce new growth. Unless you're finding disease on the plant, just make sure any dead leaves and debris are cleaned away.
