A feminine care absorbent article (e.g., feminine care pad, sanitary napkin, tampon, etc.) is provided that employs a synergistic combination of an antimicrobial composition for inhibiting the growth of microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, protozoa, yeast, fungi, etc.) and a pH sensor for signaling to the user when the antimicrobial composition is no longer operating at its full capacity. In this manner, the user can initially wear the article without fear of infection. After a certain period of time, the user can visually inspect the color of the pH sensor to obtain an indication of whether the antimicrobial composition is still active and effective in inhibiting microorganism growth, or whether it is time to replace or remove the article.提供一種婦女保健吸收性物件(例如婦女保健襯墊、衛生棉、衛生棉條等等)，其運用一用於抑制微生物(如細菌、原生動物、酵母菌、真菌等等)的抗微生物組合物，及一當該抗微生物組合物處在其完全容量下，再也無法運作時用來發信給予使用者的pH感測器的協同混合物。依照這個方式，使用者起初能夠穿載該物件而沒有感染的恐懼。在特定時間之後，該使用者能夠在視覺上察覺pH感測器的顏色，因而取得該抗微生物組合物是否仍有效用並能有效地抑制微生物生長的指示，以及是否是時候來取代及移除該物件。
