Absorbent article
A sanitary napkin ( 1 ) includes an absorbent ( 4 ) interposed between a liquid permeable top sheet ( 3 ) and a back sheet ( 2 ), wherein the liquid permeable top sheet ( 3 ) has multiple protruding parts ( 10 ) that protrude towards a skin side and that are formed at intervals, embossed parts ( 11 ) compressed from the skin side, and opening parts ( 12 ) that penetrate the liquid permeable top sheet ( 3 ), the embossed parts ( 11 ) and opening parts ( 12 ) being formed, around the protruding parts ( 10 ), to be separate from each other. Skin side extending parts ( 13 ) are provided at peripheries of the opening parts ( 12 ) such that the skin side extending parts ( 13 ) protrude towards the skin side at heights lower than heights of the protruding parts ( 10 ). In a plan view of the liquid permeable top sheet ( 3 ), the protruding parts ( 10 ) are arranged in a zigzag pattern, the opening parts ( 12 ) are arranged at areas four sides of which are surrounded by the protruding parts ( 10 ), and the embossed parts ( 11 ) are continuously or non-continuously arranged, between the adjacent opening parts ( 12 ), along directions that connect the adjacent opening parts ( 12 ).
