In the present invention, an absorbent body (4) has: a center-section upper absorbent core layer (412) in a widthwise center section (4C), the center-section upper absorbent core layer being located on a front surface sheet (2) side of a longitudinal intermediate section (4M) and both longitudinal end sections (4E) side-section absorbent core layers (413) in both widthwise side sections (4S), the side-section absorbent core layers being located on the front surface sheet side of the longitudinal intermediate section and both longitudinal end sections and adjacent to the center-section upper absorbent core layer (412) and a low-density skeleton layer (411) in the widthwise center section of the longitudinal intermediate section and at least the widthwise center sections of both longitudinal end sections, the low-density skeleton layer containing hydrophilic fibers having a crimp and a water absorbing material. In the longitudinal intermediate section of the widthwise center section, the low-density skeleton layer is in contact with the center-section upper absorbent core layer and located on a back surface sheet (3) side. The low-density skeleton layer has a smaller density than the center-section upper absorbent core layer and both end-section absorbent core layers. The low-density skeleton layer is thicker in the longitudinal center section than both end-section absorbent core layers. The center-section upper absorbent core layer has a smaller weight per unit area than both end-section absorbent core layers.Dans la présente invention, un corps absorbant (4) présente : une couche centrale absorbante supérieure en section centrale (412) dans une section centrale dans le sens de la largeur (4C), la couche centrale absorbante supérieure en section centrale étant localisée sur un côté feuille de surface avant (2) dune section intermédiaire longitudinale (4M) et des deux sections dextrémité longitudinales (4E) les couches centrales absorbantes en section latérale (413)
