I have had 5 queens in the game. When I played in competition in the
80s, I would bring back only the pieces I lost. I would not do
multiple queens.

According to the rules of chess a pawn may be promoted to a queen, rook,
bishop, or knight regardless of which pieces have been captured. Even if
none of your pieces have been captured you can still promote the pawn. Many
chess sets, including those used in high-level tournaments, come with two
queens of each colour in case your original queen is still on the board when
you promote a pawn.
