Does Vagifem Cause Breast Cancer?

I am a healthy 63 year old woman with no history of breast cancer. I exercise regularly, eat well, do not drink alcohol or smoke. I was prescribed Vagi-fem suppositories to relive menopausal symptoms especially thinking of the vaginal wall. I had a hysterectomy years ago. I took Vagi-fem for a year even though I told my PA that I didn t want to take estrogen because of the link to breast cancer. I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer underwent a lumpectomy and 7 weeks of radiation. I believe Vagi-fem was the cause of my breast cancer. Can you share your research and understanding.
