An absorbent article (1) is provided with an absorbent core (41). The absorbent core (41) has a protruding part (42) protruding toward a non-skin-side sheet (3) in an excretion-facing zone (B). The protruding part (42) has a thickness greater than the thickness of a first region 41F and a second region 41R of the absorbent core (41). The protruding part (42) has a largest-width part where the length thereof in a transverse direction (Y) orthogonal to a longitudinal direction (X) of the absorbent core (41) is greatest in plan view, and the length of the largest-width part in the transverse direction (Y) is the same as the length of the absorbent core (41) in the transverse direction (Y).吸收性物品(1)包含吸收性芯(41)。吸收性芯(41)在排泄相對區域(B)具有向非肌膚側片(3)突出之突出部(42)。突出部(42)之厚度比吸收性芯(41)之第一區域(41F)及第二區域(41R)的厚度厚。俯視時,突出部(42)具有在與吸收性芯(41)之縱向(X)正交的橫向(Y)上長度最大的最大寬度部,該最大寬度部之橫向(Y)的長度與吸收性芯(41)之橫向(Y)之長度相同。
