A main object of the present invention is to make an absorbent body having a constricted portion, while having an embossed concave portion, make it difficult to collapse the shape of the constricted portion. An absorbent article of the present invention has an absorbent element 50 provided in a range including a crotch portion, and the absorbent element 50 includes an absorbent body 56 in which at least short fiber-shaped absorbent material is laminated. And a packaging sheet 58 that wraps the absorbent body 50, the packaging sheet 58 having a first portion that covers the front side of the absorbent body 56 and a second portion that covers the back side of the absorbent body, and The absorbent body 56 has a constricted portion in the middle in the front-rear direction, the first portion and the second portion are adhered along the edge 56f of the constricted portion, and at least the absorbent body 56 of the absorbent element 50 is provided. The embossed recesses 110 reaching at least the middle in the thickness direction of the absorber from the first part are arranged at intervals in a range including a part overlapping with the constricted part.
