PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article which can fit to a body of a wearer and absorb excrement in a wider range.SOLUTION: An absorbent article (1) comprises: an absorber (10) a skin side sheet (20) and a compression part (EL) having a prescribed length in a width direction. The absorber (10) comprises a recess (15) along a longitudinal direction on a center area in a width direction of a non-skin side surface, and a fiber density of a skin side part (H) adjacent to the recess (15) from a skin side in the thickness direction is higher than a fiber density of an outside part (L) adjacent to the recess (15) from outside in the width direction. A center (Hc) in the thickness direction of the absorber (10) in a position overlapped to a deepest part (15m) in the width direction is closer to a skin side than a center (Lc) in the thickness direction of the absorber (10) on the outside part (L). The recess (15) is provided on a crotch part and extends outward in the longitudinal direction of the crotch part, and in view in the thickness direction, the recess (15) and the compression part (EL) cross only on outside in the longitudinal direction of the crotch part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】着用者の身体にフィットさせ、より広い範囲で排泄物を吸収できる吸収性物品。【解決手段】吸収体(10)と、肌側シート(20)と、幅方向に所定の長さを有する圧搾部(EL)とを有する吸収性物品(1)であって、吸収体(10)は、非肌側面の幅方向の中央領域に、長手方向に沿った凹部(15)を有し、厚さ方向において凹部(15)に肌側から隣接する肌側部位(H)の繊維密度は、幅方向において凹部(15)に外側から隣接する外側部位(L)の繊維密度よりも高く、最深部(15m)と幅方向において重なる位置における、吸収体(10)の厚さ方向の中央(Hc)は、外側部位(L)における吸収体(10)の厚さ方向の中央(Lc)より、肌側に位置しており、凹部(15)は、股間部位に設けられ、且つ股間部位より長手方向の外側に延出しており、厚さ方向に見た場合に、凹部(15)と圧搾部(EL)は股間部位より長手方向の外側においてのみ交差する。【選択図】図1
