Suppressing rows in a table

I am brand new to Power BI and I wish to do the following. I have a table of open text comments from a survey, there can be one or more comment per respondent. If, after filtering the data by one or more demographic, there are fewer than 5 respondents then I wish to suppress the comments and display a message saying something like 'There are too few respondents to display any comments'. So far I have been unable to determine how to do this, can it be done? If so, how?

There is a filter on the columns Gender, when no filter is selected all comments are displayed in a simple table.

If Gender=1 is selected then the following 8 comments are displayed because there are 6 unique respondents

However should Gender = 2 be selected then the following is displayed beacuse alhough there are 5 comments they come from only 4 unqiue respondents

Too few respondents to display
