A compressed region (50) is provided with a weakly compressed region (53) in a plan view from the skin-contacting surface side. The density of an absorption body (30) in the weakly compressed region (53) is higher than that of the absorption body (30) in a non-compressed region (30a) of an absorptive article (1). A strongly compressed region (54) is formed in the weakly compressed region (53). In the strongly compressed region (54), the density of the absorption body (30) is increased by compression. A contact section (54a) of the strongly compressed region (54) makes contact with a side edge section (53a) of the weakly compressed region (53).
