PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent article which can give excellent wearing feelings and show high absorption performance even when it is twisted by a wearer's actions or contracts after stretched.SOLUTION: An absorbent article according to the current invention includes: a surface sheet (21); a back surface sheet (23); an absorber (22); and a stretchable sheet (24) which, in a back area (A), is located between the surface sheet (21) and the rear surface sheet (23). The absorber (22) includes a non-stretchable area (N) in an excretion port corresponding area (A), a stretchable area (E) overlapping the stretchable sheet (24) in a thickness direction in the back area (A). Moreover, the absorber (22) includes the stretchable area (E) in an adjacent area (A) adjacent to the excretion port corresponding area (A) in the back area (A), and has in the stretchable area (E) inside the adjacent area (E) low rigidity parts (R, R) located at both end parts in the width direction of the absorber (22) respectively.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】本発明は、着用者の動作等によって捻じれたり、伸長後に収縮したりしても、優れた着用感と高い吸収性能とを発揮することができる吸収性物品を提供するものである。【解決手段】本発明の吸収性物品は、表面シート(21)と、裏面シート(23)と、吸収体(22)と、後方領域(A3)において表面シート(21)及び裏面シート(23)の間に位置する伸縮性シート(24)とを備え、吸収体(22)が、排泄口対応領域(A2)において非伸縮領域(N2)を含むと共に、後方領域(A3)において伸縮性シート(24)と厚さ方向に重なる伸縮領域(EA)を含み、さらに、吸収体(22)が、前記後方領域(A3)内の前記排泄口対応領域(A2)に隣接する隣接領域(A4)において前記伸縮領域(EA)を含むと共に、隣接領域(EA)内の前記伸縮領域(EA)において吸収体(22)の前記幅方向の両端部の各々に位置する低剛性部(R1、R2)を有する。【選択図】図1
