Hello dear
I understand your concern
There is no harmful effect of the duphaston on pregnancy.
If you will be pregnant then it help to maintain the pregnancy and promote the growth of baby.
But I assume that doctor gave you to induce the period.
Sometime missed one dose cause spotting and starting of period occurs.
But overall no major concern about missed one dose.
I would suggest to consult the pregnancy by blood HCG test as it is more accurate then urinary pregnancy test.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise
Better to take duphaston under the guidance of gynecologist
Hope this may help you

Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
