Embodiment Construction

[0014] According to a preferred embodiment, and as can be seen from Figures 1-4, the sanitary napkin 1 of the present invention consists of a substantially planar and elongated absorbent main body 4 having two substantially rectilinear longitudinal side edges 5 and two substantially curvilinear transverse end portions 7, the center of curvature of each transverse end portion 7 being substantially inside the area bounded by the longitudinal side edge 5 and the transverse end portion 7. The main body 4 consists of a liquid permeable cover layer 6 which, in use, contacts the wearer and absorbs any menses that may be present. Beneath the liquid permeable cover is an absorbent element 3 which absorbs and retains menses. Beneath the absorbent element 3 is a liquid impermeable outer layer 10 which prevents any absorbed liquid in the absorbent element 3 from leaking out of the sanitary napkin 1 . The outer layer has a primary adhesive layer 8 applied to its outer surface which, in us...

Abstract

A sanitary napkin has a planar long main body with two longer longitudinal edges, a liquid-impervious surface layer, a liquid permeable covering layer on its surface, an absorption core inserted in the main body between external and internal layers, and at least one bulge-outward flexible wing which is transparent or semi-transparent.

Tabless tampons are discreet and can be worn over bathrobes, skirts, gym shorts, or other women's clothing without others noticing that the user is wearing the tampon. However, the lack of additional securement provided by the side panels allows the tampon to move relative to the wearer's panties, which can lead to discomfort and menstrual leakage - a particularly uncomfortable condition for the wearer. [0004] This possibility of tampon movement is particularly critical when a woman is doing sports or other activities that...
