First lady Jill Biden is set to return to her normal schedule on Wednesday after undergoing a routine medical procedure in Washington, D.C.

Biden underwent what the White House called a "common" procedure at an outpatient medical center.

President Joe Biden accompanied his wife to the outpatient center on Wednesday morning.

The White House did not specify the first lady's procedure.

Jill Biden, 69, "tolerated the procedure well," a White House spokeswoman said in a statement to People magazine.

The Bidens spent about two hours at the outpatient clinic.

4. +1000

3. why can't they just say what it is

just curious....especially if it is "common"

[DBoon]

5. Not everyone wants to talk about their colonoscopy...

[Skittles]

6. why not?

especially if you are in a position of leadership?

I've had three of them.....I urge everyone I know who needs one to get it done.

8. breast biopsy after an abnormal area visualized on mammogram?

9. I am old enough to remember Betty Ford

I guess I just admired how courageous she was, she let it all hang out.

[irisblue]

11. me too.

I can also understand that at least 2 pathologists are going to do blind readings before any public announcements.

7. Yes, it could have been a colonoscopy or a mammogram.

I think that everyone should respect the First Lady's privacy.

10. nice dig

[MontanaMama]

12. Agree 100%.

Thank you.

[TomDaisy]

13. guaranteed it was not a boob job. Looking at you, Melanie.

[llmart]

14. +1

Yes, Dr. Biden or the President could have issued a lie like the previous administration when they said she had a "kidney procedure", but they chose to just keep it private which is their choice.

Quite frankly, I don't need to know every single thing about the First Lady. She is one classy woman and I like that.

[question everything]

15. I think they should disclose the reason and then it will go away

Haven’t we said so when Melanie was hospitalised with no explanation?

[jmowreader]

16. 69-year-old people DO need to go to the doctor on occasion

I have no interest in knowing what she had done, but you know the Hard Right is going to blow this up into treatment for metastatic cancer or a liver transplant or something to "prove" Melania Trump, whose kidneys are a hell of a lot higher than most people's, was a "better" First Lady.

18. I've got a colonoscopy tomorrow.
