Is there any way to listen for changes in the URL and trigger a JS function?

So, I have been working on this chrome extension that fetches the dislikes on a video from the youtube API and updates it on the dom.

let DISLIKE_COUNT = 0;

function convertToInternationalCurrencySystem (labelValue) {

    // Nine Zeroes for Billions
    return Math.abs(Number(labelValue)) >= 1.0e+9

    ? (Math.abs(Number(labelValue)) / 1.0e+9).toFixed(2) + "B"
    // Six Zeroes for Millions
    : Math.abs(Number(labelValue)) >= 1.0e+6

    ? (Math.abs(Number(labelValue)) / 1.0e+6).toFixed(2) + "M"
    // Three Zeroes for Thousands
    : Math.abs(Number(labelValue)) >= 1.0e+3

    ? (Math.abs(Number(labelValue)) / 1.0e+3).toFixed(2) + "K"

    : Math.abs(Number(labelValue));

}

const getDislikes = (dc) => {
    let val;

    for(let i = 1; i <= 99; i++){
        if(document.getElementsByTagName("yt-formatted-string")[i]?.innerText === "DISLIKE" || 
        document.getElementsByTagName("yt-formatted-string")[i]?.innerText === "Dislike"){
            console.log("true : " + i)
            val = i;
            break;
        }
        else{
            console.log("false");
        }
    }



    document.getElementsByTagName("yt-formatted-string")[val].innerText =  convertToInternationalCurrencySystem (dc); 
}


window.addEventListener("load", function() {
    const params = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
    const videoId = params.get('v');

    fetch(`https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=statistics&id=${videoId}&key=<yourAPIkey>`)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => 
        {
            DISLIKE_COUNT =data.items[0].statistics.dislikeCount;
            getDislikes(DISLIKE_COUNT);
        });

    

 });

Now this works pretty well but whenever I click on another video, I have to refresh the page to execute the JS code again and get the dislikes count from the API.

So, is there any way that will listen to the changes inside the URL and re-trigger the JS srcipt when the changes have been made?
