While the comedian didn't give a reason for the doctor's visit, she posted the photo on her Instagram Stories, writing, "I'm fine. You?" and her main Instagram feed with the caption, "Adjusting well. You?"

Schumer has often spoken candidly about her health.

In February, following speculation about why she had a "puffier" face during her promo tour for season 2 of Life & Beth, she revealed that she had been diagnosed with Cushing syndrome.

According to the Mayo Clinic, the condition occurs when too much cortisol (the primary stress hormone) is inside one's body for a long time, leading to possible symptoms including weight gain, high blood pressure, and bone loss. Treatment options include medication, radiation therapy, or surgery.

She revealed the news in Jessica Yellin's "News Not Noise" newsletter, expressing that she felt "reborn" after finding out the cause of her symptoms.

"While I was doing press on camera for my Hulu show, I was also in MRI machines four hours at a time, having my veins shut down from the amount of blood drawn and thinking I may not be around to see my son grow up," recalled Schumer.

"So finding out I have the kind of Cushing that will just work itself out and I'm healthy was the greatest news imaginable," she added, noting that she wants to "advocate for women's health."
