Provided is an absorbent article comprising compressed grooves formed by compressing at least a front surface sheet and a part of an absorption body in the thickness direction. The compressed grooves are arranged such that: a front region has a pair of first longitudinal compressed grooves which extends longitudinally, a first transverse compressed groove which extends transversely and which connects to the pair of first longitudinal compressed grooves, and a second transverse compressed groove which is located closer to the longitudinal center side than the first transverse compressed groove and which extends transversely, transversely inside the pair of first longitudinal compressed grooves and a center region has a pair of second longitudinal compressed grooves which extends longitudinally and a pair of third longitudinal compressed grooves which extends longitudinally, transversely inside the pair of second longitudinal compressed grooves. The second longitudinal compressed grooves and the third longitudinal compressed grooves are separated from the first longitudinal compressed grooves and are located closer to the longitudinal center side than the second transverse compressed groove. Either the longitudinal front ends of the second longitudinal compressed grooves or the longitudinal front ends of the third longitudinal compressed grooves are located closer to the longitudinal front side than the others of the longitudinal front ends of the second longitudinal compressed grooves and the longitudinal front ends of the third longitudinal compressed grooves, and the others are located closer to the longitudinal center side than the first longitudinal compressed grooves.Linvention concerne un article absorbant comprenant des rainures comprimées formées en comprimant au moins une feuille de surface avant et une partie dun corps dabsorption dans la direction dépaisseur.
