Brief Answer:
get serum beta hcg test done.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
She should get a serum beta hcg test done, which is a blood test to rule out pregnancy conclusively. If the hcg levels are less than 3mIU then she is surely not pregnant and the delay is due to the progesterone pills taken. If the test is negative then she can safely wait for the menses to return within next 7 days.
Please get the serum beta hcg test done.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
If pregnancy is confirmed then an ultrasound pelvis is required to confirm intrauterine location of pregnancy and rule out ectopic. Post that medical termination can be opted for under a gynaecologist supervision with a set of medicines prescribed in a set protocol to achieve success.
Only a gynecologist can prescribe these meds to you if his or her hospital is registered for MTP. So please meet one.
