No,either title is acceptable. The important details are your name,surname and first name if given.
Laura - this explains it better than I could:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ms.

It says:

Ms., or Ms (UK usage), (pronounced [mɪz] or [məz]) is a title used with the last name or full name of a woman. Unlike the more traditional titles Miss and Mrs., it does not bear any reference to the woman's marital status, as Mr. does not for a man.

Although it is usually believed to be a creation of modern feminism, Ms. was sporadically used as an abbreviation for the title "Mistress" (just like Mrs.) as early as the 1700s.

It still defines you as a female, so there isn't any problem. It would be very different if your name was down as 'Mr' !
