IUD Poops?

Get ready for a TMI post.

You’ve heard of period poops. Well I have been experiencing IUD poops? I’m not sure if that’s a thing. That’s why I wanted to post on here.

I got the Mirena IUD put in last November, I think. And I think my body is finally regular again. I mean, my periods and all are a little different, but they’re more consistent now.

Included in this consistency is this: my poops are consistently big and messy. Basically, every time I go to poop, I borderline clog the toilet. By messy, I mean it is borderline diarrhea and I need wet wipe clean up afterwards.

My poops never used to be like this. And now it is like this every single time I poop. I haven’t changed my eating or exercise habits. Can an IUD do this?
