For unbiased advice and information about both contraception and STDs, you can consult reliable websites from agencies such as: Health Canada, the Canadian Health Network, the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologist of Canada. (I don’t have enough experience with foreign resources to recommend any). If you think that your own doctor is in the pay of the pharmaceutical companies or has an agenda that does not match yours, consider changing doctors.
(1) There are other forms of birth control that you might wish to investigate, including IUDs (intra-uterine device, AKA “coil”). There is a newer one that contains a very small amount of hormone but most IUDs don't. Once inserted, it should have few side effects - if any - and can be worn for several years. They have a respectable contraceptive rate (99% effective) and I don't believe that they have any long-term fertility effects. The only down-side that I know of is that they may raise your susceptibility to some STDs but if you and your partner(s) get tested and take precautions...
(2) What about STDs (sexually transmitted diseases)??? Do not underestimate them. Sure, some can be cured, but many cannot and only the symptoms can be managed. Syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV & AIDS, genital herpes, Human Papilloma virus (HPV), Hepatitis B Virus, Trichomoniasis. NOTE: HPV infection can lead to cervical cancer.
