An objective of the present invention is to provide an absorbent article with which, both when dry, prior to absorbing blood, and when wet, after absorbing blood, is provided with a fit in a wearers excretory orifice, especially the labia minora, and which is not prone to leaking. Provided is an absorbent article (1), including a liquid-permeable top sheet (5), a non liquid-permeable back sheet (9), and an absorbent body (8) between the liquid-permeable top sheet (5) and the non liquid-permeable back sheet (9). The absorbent article (1) further comprises a center high part (2) which protrudes in the thickness direction of the absorbent article in an excretory orifice contact region. The center high part (2) further includes a portion of the top sheet (5), and a cushion part (7) which is positioned between the top sheet (5) and the absorbent body (8). The center high part (2) further includes a central part (11), and an outer circumference part (12) which surrounds the central part (11). The density of the cushion part (7) in the outer circumference part (12) is greater than the density of the cushion part (7) in the central part (11).提供在吸收血液前之乾燥時與吸收血液後之潮濕時,貼合著用者的排泄口、尤其小陰唇而不易產生漏出的吸收性物品。包含液透過性的頂部薄片、與液不透過性的背部薄片、與上述液透過性的頂部薄片及液不透過性的背部薄片間的吸收體之吸收性物品,其特徵為上述吸收性物品在排泄口接觸區域,於上述吸收性物品的厚度方向具有突出的中高部,且上述中高部含有上述頂部薄片的一部份、與配置於上述頂部薄片及吸收體間的緩衝部,且上述中高部具有中央部、與包圍該中央部的外周部,而上述外周部中之緩衝部的密度較上述中央部中之緩衝部的密度高。1‧‧‧吸收性物品2‧‧‧中高部3‧‧‧周圍部4‧‧‧壓縮部5‧‧‧頂部薄片6‧‧‧剝離部
