My advice is that once you change it work a little bit more harder in your SEO for a couple weeks and that's it.

Yes, changes done on wordpress categories and site can affect your site PR. But on the other hand it may give you more good results if you choose right keywords for your categories. Just work on off-page activities after making changes. And try to make your site user friendly.
