PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an absorbent pad that causes less damage to be given to a wearing article, is easy to fix to a wearing article, and adheres well to the body of a wearer.SOLUTION: An absorbent pad 1 has a fixing part outward in a crosswise direction Y from both side edges 4S and 4S along a longitudinal direction X of an absorber 4. The fixing part includes a front side fixing part 6F arranged on one end side in the longitudinal direction X of the absorbent pad 1, and a rear side fixing part 6R arranged on the other end side in the longitudinal direction X of the absorbent pad 1, and the two fixing parts 6F and 6R are separated from each other in the longitudinal direction X. A fixing material 60 for removably fixing the absorbent pad 1 to a wearing article 100 is arranged in the fixing parts 6F and 6R so as not to overlap the absorber 4 in the thickness direction when the absorbent pad 1 is in an unfolded state in which it is planarly expanded.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3【課題】着用物品に与えるダメージが低減され、着用物品への止着操作が容易で、且つ着用者の身体に対する密着性が良好な吸収パッドを提供すること。【解決手段】吸収パッド1は、吸収体4の縦方向Xに沿う両側縁4S,4Sより横方向Yの外方に止着部を有し、該止着部は、吸収パッド1の縦方向Xの一端側に配された前側止着部6Fと、吸収パッド1の縦方向Xの他端側に配された後側止着部6Rとを含み、両止着部6F,6Rは縦方向Xに離間している。止着部6F,6Rに、吸収パッド1を着用物品100に取り外し可能に止着する止着材60が、吸収パッド1を平面状に拡げた展開状態において吸収体4と厚み方向において重ならないように配されている。【選択図】図3
