PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article which shows high air permeability and is less stuffy because of discharge of moisture in the inside by generating an air flow in a planar direction and a thickness direction of an absorber.SOLUTION: An absorber 4 includes an upper layer absorber 4A arranged on a skin side and a lower layer absorber 4B arranged on a non-skin side. An intermediate laminate 10 made of a non-woven fabric is interposed between the upper layer absorber 4A and the lower layer absorber 4B, and a plurality of holes 11, 11... penetrating through the upper layer absorber 4A, the intermediate laminate 10, and the lower layer absorber 4B in the thickness direction are provided. Air flows through the holes 11 in the thickness direction and flows through the intermediate laminate 10 in the planar direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5【課題】吸収体の平面方向及び厚み方向に空気の流れを生じさせることにより、内部の湿気が放出でき、通気性が高く蒸れにくくする。【解決手段】吸収体4は、肌側に配置される上層吸収体4Aと、非肌側に配置される下層吸収体4Bとを有し、前記上層吸収体4Aと下層吸収体4Bとの間に、不織布からなる中間積層体10を介在するとともに、前記上層吸収体4A、中間積層体10及び下層吸収体4Bを厚み方向に貫通する複数の開孔11、11…を設ける。前記開孔11を通って厚み方向に空気が流れるとともに、前記中間積層体10を通って平面方向に空気が流れる。【選択図】図5
