A magnetic panty liner assembly for reducing menstrual pain includes a first panel, a first panel, a second panel, and a third panel. The second panel, which is absorbent, is coupled to a lower face of the first panel. The third panel is coupled to a bottom surface of the second panel and a perimeter of the first panel to enclose the second panel. The ridge and the third panel are impermeable. A coupler on an exterior face of the third panel is configured to couple the third panel to an undergarment. Menstrual fluid flows through the first panel to be absorbed by the second panel. A ridge on the first panel is positioned in abutment to skin of the user to prevent leakage. Magnets that are positioned between the second panel and the third panel are configured to reduce pain of menstruation.

A disposable absorbent article is disclosed. The absorbent article has a topsheet; a backsheet; and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. The absorbent article exhibits a pad peel force of at least about 0.5N, when measured in accordance with the product integrity test.

A sanitary pad. The sanitary pad includes an elongated pad having an upper surface and a lower surface. An upraised member having a first lateral side and a second lateral side is disposed on the upper surface. A plurality of channels are disposed along the first lateral side and the second lateral side.

An absorbent core comprising substantially continuous zones of one or more high fluid distribution structures and discontinuous zones of fluid absorption structures surrounding the one or more high fluid distribution structures, wherein the one or more high fluid distribution structures are arranged to distribute fluid across the absorbent core at a speed that is faster than the speed of fluid distribution across the absorbent core by said discontinuous fluid absorption structures, and wherein said continuous zones extend along a path that is substantially parallel to at least a portion of the perimeter of the core, said portion of the perimeter of the core comprising at least a portion of the sides of the core and one of the ends of the core.

An absorbent article in which an absorbent body is provided between a liquid permeable topsheet and a backsheet, includes a concave groove-like or a slit-like absorbent body concave portion provided at a liquid permeable topsheet side of the absorbent body along a longitudinal direction of the absorbent article at an area including a urine expelling site, both end portions of the absorbent body concave portion in the longitudinal direction respectively being zones of a gradually decreasing width, each having a tapered shape whose width is gradually decreased toward an end portion side, each of the zones of a gradually decreasing width being formed to have a length that is greater than or equal to 20% of the total length of the absorbent body concave portion.

A absorbent article has a concave groove that satisfies (1) a relationship between a depth h of a bottom surface portion of the concave groove, and a distance S from a bottom end G of the concave groove to an upper end K from which a concavity of the concave groove starts is 1.5h<S, (2) a relationship between a width b of a bottom surface of the concave groove, and a width B of a liquid collection area expressed by a distance between the upper ends K and K at both sides of the concave groove is B3b, and (3) a relationship between a dimension a of a square concave groove expressed by a product of the width b of the bottom surface and the depth h of the bottom surface, and a cross-sectional dimension A of the concave groove is A2a.

An absorbent core comprising substantially continuous zones of one or more high fluid distribution structures and discontinuous zones of fluid absorption structures surrounding the one or more high fluid distribution structures, wherein the one or more high fluid distribution structures are arranged to distribute fluid across the absorbent core at a speed that is faster than the speed of fluid distribution across the absorbent core by said discontinuous fluid absorption structures, and wherein said continuous zones extend along a path that is substantially parallel to at least a portion of the perimeter of the core, said portion of the perimeter of the core comprising at least a portion of the sides of the core and one of the ends of the core.

An absorbent article has a top sheet, a back sheet, and an absorbent assembly positioned between the back sheet and the top sheet. The absorbent article includes a fluid intake layer positioned between the absorbent assembly and the top sheet. The fluid intake layer has a rearward-facing arch located in a back portion of the fluid intake layer. The fluid intake layer has an opening. The absorbent article includes a first lateral stiffener and a second lateral stiffener extending along a majority of the longitudinal side edges of the fluid intake layer. The absorbent article includes a first flexure, a second flexure, and a third flexure in a rear portion of the absorbent article.

An absorbent article having a pair of longitudinal edges, front and rear transverse edges, a front end region, a rear end region, and a central region disposed between the front and rear end regions. The absorbent article has a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, a pair of outwardly convex longitudinal central channels formed at least in the central region. The traversal distance of the pair of outwardly convex longitudinal central channels decreases towards both ends of the channels to define a central closed area. The absorbent article has a rear channel defining a rear closed area in the rear end region.

An absorbent core comprising substantially continuous zones of one or more high fluid distribution structures and discontinuous zones of fluid absorption structures surrounding the one or more high fluid distribution structures, wherein the one or more high fluid distribution structures are arranged to distribute fluid across the absorbent core at a speed that is faster than the speed of fluid distribution across the absorbent core by said discontinuous fluid absorption structures, and wherein said continuous zones extend along a path that is substantially parallel to at least a portion of the perimeter of the core, said portion of the perimeter of the core comprising at least a portion of the sides of the core and one of the ends of the core.
