Thank you for your question and welcome to Empowher. I usually recommend waiting at least 10 days after your missed period to try and take a test. If that is negative and you still don't have a period, wait till 20 days. Sometimes we just miss periods for no really scientific reason. Stress, changes in diet and exercise can certainly be a cause of delayed periods also so wait, take a test since PMS and pregnancy symptoms mimic each other and it is so hard to diagnose by symptoms.
