Dynamic slicer based on another slicer

Let's say I have two slicers. The first slicer consists of Month Names and the other slicer will contain "Weekly", "Monthly", "Yearly".

 

So if I select only one month in the month names slicer, the other slicer should only show me the Weekly option

And if I have 4 months selected in the months slicer then the other slicer should show Weekly and Monthly 

That's basically the whole idea, is something like this actually possible in Power bi?

    Hi  RingoSun ,

    Here are the steps you can follow:

    1. Create measure.

    Flag =
    SWITCH(
        TRUE(),
    COUNTROWS(VALUES('Table'[Monthyear]))=1&&SELECTEDVALUE('Table2'[Slicer])="Week",1,
    COUNTROWS(VALUES('Table'[Monthyear]))>=4&& OR( SELECTEDVALUE('Table2'[Slicer])="Month",SELECTEDVALUE('Table2'[Slicer])="Week"),1,
    COUNTROWS(VALUES('Table'[Monthyear]))>=2&&SELECTEDVALUE('Table2'[Slicer])="Month",1,
    0)

    2. Result:
