ABSTRACT:
Absorbent articles such as pantiliners, panty liners, and incontinence pads are disclosed. More particularly, the present invention relates to absorbent articles, such as pantiliners, that can have portions thereof removed or otherwise manipulated to change, and particularly reduce, the dimensions of the absorbent article so that they can fit a variety of panty sizes and styles. In a preferred embodiment, the pantiliner is adjusted in size by tearing the absorbent article along one or more perforation lines and removing the portions of the absorbent article that lie outboard of the perforation lines.
