Abstract: An absorbent article, especially an incontinence pad, having a length and a width extension, the length being greater than the width, and having absorbent core material, wherein the outer longitudinal edges of the absorbent material form three convex lobes (2, 3, 4), wherein a pair of folding lines (5) extend between the longitudinal ends of the middle one (3) of the three lobes (2, 3, 4), so as to divide the absorbent core material into a central portion (6) and a pair of longitudinal side portions (7), such that, when the article (1) is in use, the folding lines (5) are generally positioned so as to extend along the crotch area of the user, starting from the gracilis tendons and ending in the region of the perineum, whereby the side portions (7) may extend from the central portion (6) towards the user so as to form an arc shape as seen in a transversal direction of the article (1).

Abstract: The present invention concerns a male incontinence guard 10. The guard is divided by a transverse dividing line 25 into a front region 18 with a front transverse edge 20 and a rear region 22 with a rear transverse edge 24. The guard 10 tapers towards the rear transverse edge 24. The garment-facing surface 26 of the guard 10 comprises a first 28 and a second 30 strand of adhesive means. The location and dimensions of the first 28 and second 30 strand of adhesive means provides improved fastening of the guard 10 to the underwear of the wearer.
