Can Praguard IUD Cause Constipation?

Can Paraguard IUD cause constipation ?
I have my second Paraguard IUD placed a year ago (the first one was displaced, so it had to be removed). After the placement of the second IUD I started experiencing bloating, constipation and my stools became hard and dry.
Can this be related to the Paraguard?

Thanks
