The invention provides an absorbent pad which can be easily peeled from a diaper or underwear for the lower part of the body. The absorbent pad (200) has, on the back side of an outer sheet (25), an attachment panel (31) which is sectioned into an extending portion (31 a) bearing a hook tape (32) on the face side and a base end portion (31 b) fixed to the outer sheet (25) with a folding-back area (31 c) between both portions (31 a) and (31 b), whereby the hook tape (32) can be exposed to the outer surface of the pad (200) by bending the attachment panel (31) along the folding-back area (31 c) in such a way as to lay the extending portion (31 a) on the base end portion (31 b).
