Absorbent article with improved fit

摘要

Absorbent article with a stiffening element to contribute to the three-dimensional shape of the article during its use. The stiffening area is planar before use and comprises a first stiffening part area in the front portion. The first stiffening part area in the front portion has a width which, at least at some point in the longitudinal direction of the article, exceeds the distance between the muscle tendons of the wearer on both sides of the crotch of the wearer in the groin. The article comprises an elongate absorbent crotch area to be fitted in the crotch of the wearer over the genitals of the latter. The absorbent crotch area is attached to the first part area and held in place by the latter so as to avoid the absorbent crotch area sliding backwards and out of the intended position over the genitals of the wearer when the wearer moves.
