how long do contraceptive pills remain in the body and do they have any harm?

One book says some remaining stuff of the oral contraceptive pills still remain in your system for 6 months after the last pill and they would cause birth defects if you conceive within 6 months after being off it because our reproductive cells are much more fragile than other cells of our body. Is this true? I guess at least it's not true for all kinds of the pills. Is contraceptive pill so bad, even worse than general meds? I'm thinking about whether to use it as a method of contraception. Thanks for your reply!
