General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear,
Understand your concern.
It is suggestive of pregnancy because absence of period is the definitive sign of pregnancy.
But you have to confirm by testing
1. Blood HCG level: most sensitive
2. Urine HCG pregnancy test can be used at home
3. USG can be done.

In your case missed period may be due to hormonal imbalance in your body.
A normal menstrual cycle is dependent on the interaction hormones, including oestrogen and progesterone produced by the ovaries as well other hormones produced by thepituitary gland.
If any of these hormones are not produced in the correct amounts this can disrupt the cycle and cause problems like missed period.

You should take duphatson 10 mg twice daily for another 4-6 days but after doctor consultation and negative pregnancy test

But my best advice is that again consult with your doctor.
Test your hormone profile- Estrogen, Progesteron, FSH, LH, HCG
USG

Hope this may help you.
Stay healthy.
All the best.
