PCT No. PCT/US96/10172 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 12, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 12, 1997 PCT Filed Jun. 3, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/41602 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 27, 1996An absorbent article comprising a liquid pervious topsheet (4), a liquid impervious backsheet, and an absorbent core (8) surrounded by the topsheet (4) and the backsheet is improved in such a manner as to be deformed in the width direction without being distorted inappropriately when undergoing a widthwise compressive force. The absorbent core (8) includes a central core piece (12) and a pair of side core pieces (14) disposed on both sides of the central core piece; or includes a central core portion, a pair of connecting portions extending downwardly from the opposite side edges of the central core portion, and a pair of side core portions extending widthwise outwardly from the connecting portions. When a widthwise compressive force is exerted, the side core pieces or the side core portions are displaced widthwise inwardly and caused to sink below the central core piece or the central core portion.
