Delay of menses can be caused by a delay in ovulation (stress: emotional, job, etc.) so a home test may be negative. If your cycle is delayed another 7-10 days, obtain a serum HCG test to be certain about pregnancy.

Get a blood test for HCG level to settle the issue. If you had sex since your last period and missed your period, pregnancy needs to be excluded. If at 5 weeks after you last period it is still not resolved, an ultrasound examination may be warranted. Wish you good health!
