AH Challenge: Female Head of the Soviet Union

Exactly what it says on the tin. Have a woman as the General Secretary of the Communist Party Soviet Union or Premier of the Soviet Union at any point in its history, PoD after 1917.

Go wild.
 
The three possibilities are:
Alexandra Kollontai, if the Workers' Opposition somehow becomes much more powerful.
Ekaterina Furtseva- no idea how, but she was extremely influential
Galina Semyonova- was Secretary of the Central Committee in 1990, so could briefly end up president dring the collapse.
 
Or she could be someone who didn't exist IOTL. If born in 1918, someone could be butterflied to leadership at 50 in 1968.
