Abstract
A sanitary napkin includes a main body having a liquid-absorbent layer for absorbing and retaining liquid and a projection disposed on a body surface of the main body. The projection has a resistive portion provided with a resistive member for resisting compressive deformation of the projection toward the main body and a flexible portion not provided with the resistive member. The flexible portion is longitudinally stretchable and subjected to a longitudinal elastic contractive force.
