Pulsatilla, also known as windflower or Pasque flower, is primarily used in homeopathic and traditional herbal medicine. Its use for emotional sensitivity—often described in homeopathic literature as being suited for individuals who are gentle, tearful, and emotionally changeable—originates from classical homeopathic provings and case reports, not from scientific studies or clinical trials. In homeopathy, Pulsatilla is prepared in highly diluted forms, and practitioners select it based on the individual's emotional and physical symptom profile. The evidence supporting its use for emotional sensitivity is largely anecdotal and based on traditional materia medica texts by figures such as Samuel Hahnemann. There are no robust clinical studies or systematic reviews that validate its effectiveness for this indication according to modern scientific standards. Conventional herbalists sometimes use Pulsatilla for its purported mild sedative properties, but again, rigorous evidence for its benefit in emotional sensitivity is lacking. Overall, the use of Pulsatilla for emotional sensitivity is supported by tradition rather than scientific research, and the quality of evidence would be considered low.
