Disclosed is an elongated, curved sanitary napkin (10) having elasticized, raised side edges (50,52) along the opposite sides of an absorbent (18). A garment attachment panel (14,16) is secured to the underside of each raised side edge (50,52). A fixed portion (70) of the garment attachment panel (14,16) is bonded flat against each raised side edge (50,52) so that a free portion (72) of each of the garment attachment panels (14,16), extending from the fixed portion (70), is directed generally inward and downward. During use, the garment attachment panels (14,16) are fastened together beneath an undergarment crotch by hook and loop type fastener (78,80). The fastener (78,80) and the garment attachment panels (14,16) are dimensioned so that, when fastened, the garment attachment panels (14,16) exert a pull on the raised side edges (50,52) and control their deflection, thereby preventing them from folding in over the absorbent (18). The garment attachment panels (14,16) confine the crotch portion of the undergarment under the absorbent (18) so that the elasticized edges of the panty crotch are prevented from pulling up and onto the absorbent (18). <IMAGE> |
