1. An absorbent article including:
a leak preventer including a bottom surface part extending in a front-rear direction, and side parts raised to an upper side at both left and right sides of the bottom surface part; an absorber containing a super absorbent polymer for absorbing a body fluid placed in an internal space formed by the bottom surface part and the side parts of the leak preventer in at least one layer; a liquid guide unit, having a top surface and a bottom surface, the top surface being opposite the bottom surface, and the top surface being closest to a wearer, wherein:
the liquid guide unit is placed in a front body part of the internal space, at a position near a meatus urinarius of a wearer when the absorbent article is worn by the wearer and where a flow of discharged urine directly collides with the liquid guide unit,the liquid guide unit is not directly contacting the absorber; andthe liquid guide unit is configured for moving the urine from the position where the urine has collided with the liquid guide to other positions when urine is discharged, wherein the absorbent article does not include a top sheet; side edge bands along ends of the side parts of the leak preventer, the side edge bands being directly connected to left and right ends of the liquid guide unit or being connected by a connection member such that the side bands are disposed on a same planar surface as the liquid guide unit or on the top surface of the liquid guide unit; and a support member for supporting the liquid guide unit from a lower surface of the liquid guide unit to make a space between the liquid guide unit and the absorber, the support member having a front end connected to a front end portion of the leak preventer, and a rear end connected at a position in vicinity of a central part of the absorber in the front-rear direction or a position behind the central part of the absorber in the front-rear direction. |
