ABSTRACT:
Absorbent product, such as a sanitary towel, with a stiffening element (6) which is intended to contribute to the three-dimensional shape of the product during its use.The stiffening element (6) is in a plane state before use of the product and extends in the longitudinal direction of the product over the crotch portion (3) and at least some way in over the front portion (1).The stiffening element (6) has a width (M) at the transition between the crotch portion (3) and the front portion (1) which is adapted to the distance between the muscle tendons of the wearer on both sides of the crotch of the wearer in the groin of the latter and which is of the order of 15-45 mm, and is designed with sufficient stiffness in order to resist disadvantageous creasing thereof in the lateral direction.A hump-forming element (24) made of a resilient material is arranged under the stiffening element (6), which hump-forming element is arranged so as to bring about a raised portion (240) on the side which is intended to be fitted against the wearer, the raised portion (240) being arranged so as to come to lie directly in front of the genitals of the wearer after fitting of the product on the wearer.
