Was she ever queen/empress/princess regnant of any monarchy, or reign with a male title such as king? This question does not refer to regents of a regency.

Maria Theresia of Austria (1717-1780) Archduchess of Austria and Queen of Hungary (to name only her most important titles), married to Franz I Stephan the Emperor of the HRE and changed the House of Habsburg to the House of Habsburg-Lothringia?
