Will Cortisone Shot Cause Any Harm While Trying To Conceive?

I made an appointment for a cortisone shot I felt I needed desperately the other day. Today, the pain was off and on, and I'm concerned with if it will have any possible effect on my trying to conceive. Should someone who's trying to get pregnant avoid the shot? I've definately been in worse pain and worked through it. I just was more afraid of the shot at that time.
