ABSTRACT:
A multilayered absorbent feminine hygiene product which is configured for releasable attachment to a user's garment has a plurality of absorbent pads. Each of the absorbent pads has an absorbent layer to contain absorbed fluid and a barrier layer to prevent absorbed fluid from leaking completely through the individual pad. The first, lowermost pad in the product is configured for releasable attachment to a user's garment. Additional pads in the product are releasably attached above the first pad to form a stacked or layered product. The pads may be adhesively, thermally, compressively, or mechnically bonded. Preferably, the multilayered product includes three absorbent pads.
