Abstract
A male incontinence guard has a fluid-impermeable backsheet, a fluid-permeable topsheet facing a user and an absorbent body arranged between the backsheet and the topsheet. The guard has a longitudinal extension along a longitudinal axis and a transverse extension along a transverse axis. The transverse axis divides the guard into an upper and a lower region. The upper region has a greater maximum extension along the transverse axis than the lower region. The absorbent body has primary and secondary cores arranged in a stacked configuration. The primary core has a greater area in an XY plane than the area of the secondary core. The secondary core has side edges that are at least partly generally parallel to the longitudinal axis. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing the male incontinence guard.
