摘要 |
The absorbent article for incontinent women is a cylindrical roll of absorbent material that is disposed between the labia majora just under the urethra. The article absorbs urine accidentally discharged by the body. The article may be disposed in a protective plastic wrapper that fully encloses the article. The protective wrapper is permanently affixed to the roll axially in a 270-degree arc, the remaining 90-degree arc forming an axially extending flap tethered to the roll. In some embodiments, the absorbent article may be distributed in a kit with a lubricant. The lubricant is a petroleum-free, water-based moisturizing balm used on the absorbent material to moisturize vaginal tissues and prevent dryness. In other embodiments, the absorbent material is pre-moisturized with a lubricant.
