Roth IRA

Why is Turbotax asking me to "Enter Prior Year Roth IRA Contributions"?  I am supposed to report my net regular contributions prior to 2021.  My last contribution to my Roth IRA was in 2013.  But the way the instructions are worded, I should add up all of my prior contributions, subtract the amount I withdrew, and enter that number in the window. If I did that, I would be entering a negative amount.  Now if they mean contributions within the last 5 years,  I would subtract a large amount from zero (0).  Which does not make sense.  So the question should be, did I make any contributions in the last 5 years, if NO go on to the next screen. Since I am stuck at this screen, what should I do?
