Periods may be delayed for numerous reasons- apart from pregnancy, stress, anxiety, sudden weight gain, medications, thyroid dysfunction, increased prolactin and pcos can all delay periods. What you can do is to wait for 1 more week, if no periods, do once more pregnancy test. If pregnancy test is negative you need to some investigations for the causes mentioned above. I don't think there is much to worry.
