An absorbent article (1) has an absorption body (10) comprising liquid-absorbent fibers, and has mutually orthogonal longitudinal, width, and thickness directions. The absorption body (10) has a longitudinal-direction recess (15) in a center region that includes a width-direction center position. The fiber density of a skin-side area (H) that is adjacent to the recess (15) on a skin side in the thickness direction is higher than the fiber density of outside areas (L) that are adjacent to the recess (15) on the outsides in the width direction. The fiber density of the skin-side area (H) at a crotch area that is positioned at a crotch during wear is higher than the fiber density of the skin-side area (H) at one longitudinal-direction end part.[課題] 提供一種對應裝用者的身體的形狀,讓貼合性提升的吸收性物品。 [解決手段] 一種吸收性物品(1),係具備互相正交的長邊方向、寬邊方向、及厚度方向,並具有具液體吸收性纖維的吸收體(10),其中,前述吸收體(10),是在包含前述寬邊方向中的中央位置的中央區域具有沿著前述長邊方向的凹部(15),在前述厚度方向從肌膚側鄰接前述凹部(15)的肌膚側部位(H)的纖維密度,是比前述寬邊方向中從外側鄰接前述凹部(15)的外側部位(L)的纖維密度更高,裝用時位在胯間部的胯間部位中的前述肌膚側部位(H)的纖維密度,是比前述長邊方向的一端部中的前述肌膚側部位(H)的纖維密度更高。
