In the US, loan period would usually refer to the length of the loan, or
perhaps the time between periods.

In either case, you have already defined those in your statement.

Perhaps you mean something else?

I presume you mean the periodic payment.

=roundup(pmt(5%/4, 5*4, -5000000), 2)

Change the rounding as you see fit.
