A multi-layered, absorbent perineal pad is disclosed that has a generally ovate cross-section. In disclosed embodiments, the pad has an absorbent out er layer, antimicrobial intermediate layer, and absorbent inner layer. At le ast two opposing edges of the pad are sealed to one another so that the abso rbent inner layer encloses an internal cavity within the pad.

Liquids that are absorbe d in the pad can be subjected to diagnostic assays.
