The article furthermore exhibits a liquid-pervious cover layer (2) and a liquid-impervious cover layer (3) and an absorbent body (4). The invention is characterized in that the rear portion (7) of the absorbent body (4) comprises a layer (17) that is split in a first leg (15) and a second leg (16) with a gap between the legs (15, 16), where an angle alpha is defined between the first leg (15) and the second leg (16), and that an elastic member (19) is placed between the first leg (15) and the second leg (16), which elastic member (19) essentially extends in the longitudinal direction.
