Abstract
The invention is generally accomplished by providing a panty-like garment containing an integral menstrual pad. The absorbent pad portion extends from the crotch region up in both the back and the front to a point higher than normal menstrual pads. The pad extends at least up to the area where the crack between the gluteus maximus ends. Further there is an impervious member that is outside of the absorbent pad and greater in area than the absorbent pad.
