Not related: Bloating is usually bowel related and an iud should have no effect on bowel function.

Typical: Some people bloat periodically. Try reducing your fluid intake for a few days. If not better, see your physician.

See your doctor: Symptoms and concerns like these mandate a thorough evaluation by your doctor. Only after such an evaluation, which may include labs and radiographic examinations, can he/she let you know what's going on and how best to help you.
