Some women occasionally skip a menses. If you are not pregnant or so early it is not detected I would not worry about a simple social drink or two.

Best to first determine if pregnancy is positive: get a serum HCG test to be certain. Stress (COVID-19, work, school, emotional) can cause delay in ovulation which delays menstruation. If the HCG is negative, see a GYN physician for an exam and other testing.

No alcohol when trying to get pregnant. Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. for info: http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/menstruation/conditioninfo/Pages/causes.aspx
