A disposable panty shield (10) comprising a thin, highly absorbent pad having a body-contacting surface (11,12), an absorbent layer (16), a liquid barrier (17), an adhesive layer (18), and a release layer (19) to protect the positioning means prior to use wherein the panty shield has been densified by fusing all pad layers together in a manner such that the interstitial space between the individual fibers in the densified areas is not sufficient to readily allow fluid to flow through, and the liquid barrier (13) has a contoured surface. The adhesive layer is attached to the liquid barrier such that the adhesive follows the contour (20) of the liquid barrier (13). <IMAGE> |
