in the pathogenesis of cancer, there is a theory called a second-hit principle.
any insult (e.g. radiation, a genetic lesion predisposing to cancer, exposure to other carcinogens) may predispose you to develop "precancerous cells" and otherwise normal cells but with a genetic or metabolic pathyway that may later transform it to cancerous cells. you will need continuous exposure to other insults to eventually transform these cells to cancer.
smoking marijuana exposes you to carcinogenic substances that result from the actual burning process of marijuana (e.g. benzopyrenes, other hydrocarbons). these substances may eventually reach your blood stream and in the long run makes you at risk for further transformation of the precancerous cells to cervical cancer.
this is the reason why for any cancer or premalignant state, the patient is always advised to avoid/minimize exposure to possible carcinogens (regardless whether these exposures involve a different organ in the body)
