How much do you share at work?

Story character: Mei, 30, Singapore SG.
I work in a fairly small team in finance. I have appointments coming up that need time off, but I don’t want to share my whole health history at work.
I’m looking for brief, professional ways to request flexibility. Something that’s clear but keeps details private. HR has a process, but I still need to talk to my manager.
If you’ve navigated this, what phrasing worked for you to ask for time without over-explaining?
Your situation deserves its own conversation.
