Hello,
I don't think naproxen can cause a delay in period. Most probably is cyclobenzaprine that is causing the delayed period.
It is a muscle relaxant that causes skeletal muscles to relax and also can relax even uterus from contracting and making periods to come. They will come as you stop it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
