ABSTRACT:
An anal region pantyliner, has an impervious outer layer, an absorbent middle layer, and a liquid-permeable bodymost layer. It is preferably held in place against an undergarment by removable adhesive. It absorbs anal leakage and fits both male and female anatomy. A unique feature of one embodiment is a pear-like shape having a wide area covering the buttocks and a narrow part extending forward between the legs, terminating short of the genital area comfortable for both males and females. An alternate female version continues forward to cover the vaginal or urethral region. The preferred embodiment is thicker in the crotch area, having an absorbent pad situated retro-scrotally along the center and an additional inter-buttock absorbent ridge. An alternate embodiment has an absorbent dam situated retro-scrotally. Another alternate embodiment is flat, being of uniform thickness.
