It doesn't: The more sexual partners you have over a lifetime, the higher your risk of contracting a certain sexually transmitted disease called hpv. Certain strains of hpv will increase your risk of cervical cancer.

HPV,Papilloma virus: Hpv is the major cause of lter development of cervical cancer, hence the recommendation that all girls get hpv vaccine before they become sexually active. Having unprotected sex plus numerous partners, which all increase risk of hpv infection are factors putting you at risk for cervical cancer. These are more likely the earlier you lose your virginity, not the actual defloration.
