Yasmin concern

I just got Yasmin yesterday b/c my cycles have been out of control. I've had issues in the past with ortho-tricyclen so the dr decided to try this. However, I was reading info on it and it said that you shouldn't take it if you have a history of jaundice. I was born with yellow jaundice, but they gave me a full blood transfusion as a newborn. I'm now 30 and have had no problems b/c of the jaundice. Would this still affect me or do they mean adults who have jaundice history?

TIA

July,


I'm sure it's referring to adult liver disease and any jaundice that may result from that - but verify this with a professional.
