Q: Period manipulation with IUD ?

I am currently on an IUD, and have had it for over a year now. Everything is going great except for my periods in the last couple of months have shifted their placement in the month. They used to be in the middle, now they aren't until the last week of the month. My issue is I have a wedding coming up and the date was set for the end of the month. Is there a ways I can change when my period will occur while on an IUD?

i dont think so. since you arnt taking anything like a pill or using a patch then i dont think there is a way to do anything about it. i could be wrong, but since an iud is placed in you, there isnt much to tamper with.
