A relatively thin absorptive article, appropriately fitting to the wearers body, less likely to curl, and having excellent absorbing properties. An absorptive article having at least a liquid-permeable sheet, a liquid-impermeable sheet, and an absorbing body sandwiched between the liquid-permeable sheet and the liquid-impermeable sheet. In order to integrate the liquid-permeable sheet and the absorbing body together, on the absorptive article on the skin contact side surface thereof, there are arranged compressed grooves at both the longitudinal ends of at least the center region of the absorbing body, and also point-like compressed sections arranged with a spacing between each compressed section.
