I took the pill for several years with no ill effects.

Thankfully. For now.
It's the long-term effects that concern medical researchers.

"The research concluded that women who used the oral contraceptive pill
may be exposed to long-term problems from low values of "unbound" testosterone
potentially leading to continuing sexual, metabolic, and mental health consequences."

"For now"? How long term are we talking about? I took it from 1969-1982, and it's now 2006. In my lifetime, at least, that's loooooong term.
