To provide an absorbent article excellent in a wearing feeling, and capable of preventing lateral leak of a discharged fluid.SOLUTION: There is provided an absorbent article comprising: a surface sheet 2 forming a skin facing surface； a rear surface sheet 3 forming a non-skin facing surface； and an absorber 4 interposed between both the sheets 2, 3. A leakage prevention cuff 15 is provided on each of both side parts in a vertical direction X. The leakage prevention cuff 15 has a folding part 15d between a free end 15a and a fixed end 15b, the free end 15a relative to the folding part 15d is folded outward in a lateral direction Y. The absorber 4 has an absorbent core 14, the absorbent core 14 has a center absorbent part 14C provided on a center part in a lateral direction Y and a pair of side absorbent parts 14S whose swell ratio is higher than that of the center absorbent part 14C, a distance between the pair of side absorbent parts 14S is shorter than a distance between the folding parts 15d.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2【課題】装着感が良く、かつ、排泄液の横漏れを防止することができる吸収性物品を提供すること。【解決手段】肌対向面を形成する表面シート２、非肌対向面を形成する裏面シート３、及びこれら両シート２，３間に介在された吸収体４を備える吸収性物品である。縦方向Ｘの両側部に防漏カフ１５を備えている。防漏カフ１５は、自由端１５ａと固定端１５ｂとの間に折り曲げ部１５ｄを有し、該折り曲げ部１５ｄより該自由端１５ａが横方向Ｙの外方に向かって折り返されている。吸収体４は、吸収性コア１４を備え、該吸収性コア１４が、横方向Ｙの中央部に位置する中央吸収部１４Ｃと、該中央吸収部１４Ｃより膨潤率が高い一対のサイド吸収部１４Ｓとを有し、一対の該サイド吸収部１４Ｓ間の距離が、折り曲げ部１５ｄ間の距離より短い。【選択図】図２
