To provide an absorbent article which provides good wear feeling before and after excretion and is excellent in an absorption performance.SOLUTION: An absorbent article 1 of the invention has an excretion part facing area B arranged opposite an excretion part of a user in use and a front area A and a rear area C arranged back and forth in a vertical direction X of the area B, and is provided with an absorber 4. The absorber 4 contains a fiber lump 11 including a synthetic fiber 11F, and a water absorptive fiber 12F. In the absorber 4, a ratio of content mass of the fiber lump 11 with respect to a total content mass of the fiber lump 11 and water absorptive fiber 12F (fiber lump occupancy) is larger in the excretion part facing area B than in the front area A and the rear area C, and in the excretion part facing area B, smaller on a skin facing side B1 of the absorber than on a non-skin facing surface side B2 of the absorber.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
