Denver - Jordan Eisenberg says he knows a thing or two about dealing with the volatile emotions of premenstrual syndrome. After all, he grew up around women. A year ago, the 28-year-old entrepreneur and Denver resident decided to devise a way other men could do the same. The outcome was PMSbuddy.com, a free Internet-based service that tracks the monthly cycles of a subscriber's significant other and offers e-mail reminders about the impending deadlines. And it's catching on: The site surpassed 150,000 registered users last month. Ten percent are women. Not to rest on his laurels, Eisenberg recently added a phone application — PMS Buddy iPhone — for 99 cents. There were 1,000 downloads the first day.

"We don't intend to be taken too seriously," Eisenberg said. "People think it's funny, interesting, helpful . . . maybe a combination." Some aren't so light-hearted, claiming the site is an adversary to understanding the problems women face, perpetuating stereotypes of women suffering from PMS. "I feel it just reinforces this thing that women are driven by their hormones," said Joanne Belknap , a professor of sociology at the University of Colorado at Boulder. "Men also have hormonal cycles. . . . We just aren't as preoccupied with them."
