Does Aloe Vera Cause Miscarriage?

I used a shampoo & conditioner that contain aloe Vera among other ingredients in it once. I heard aloe vera is dangerous during pregnancy. I am 11 weeks pregnant & scared that I may have harmed my baby. Can you please tell me if there's how much intake of aloe Vera can cause a miscarriage? & how soon after the intake does miscarriages occur after consumption of aloe during pregnancy? Please help, I'm going out of my mind
