In an absorbent product (1), a first absorbent sheet (22) is disposed between a top sheet (21) and a back sheet (23). A second absorbent sheet (22a) is disposed between the first absorbent sheet (22) and the back sheet (23). The first absorbent sheet (22) includes a first upper sheet (221), a first highly absorbent material (222) in particulate or fibrous form, and a first lower sheet (223). The first absorbent sheet (22) extends in the longitudinal direction beyond the longitudinal edges of the second absorbent sheet (22a) on both longitudinal sides. On each longitudinal side, an extension (224) of the first absorbent sheet (22) beyond the second absorbent sheet (22a) includes a back-sheet contact region (225) that is spaced in the longitudinal direction from the longitudinal edge of the second absorbent sheet (22a) and that is in contact with the back sheet (23). This configuration suppresses the return of liquid.
