No Period: You say nothing about your sexual history the rest of the month. I would do a home pregnancy test with your first morning urine.

Get tested: Take a pregnancy test. Most tests claim to work on the 1st day after a missed period. Doctors usually recommend to wait 3-7 days to ensure you don't get a 'false negative' test when the hCG levels (hormone correlated with pregnancy) aren't high enough for the test to detect.
