A urine incontinence pad has an absorbent core having a first core layer and a fluid control layer. The absorbent core has a varying thickness profile as seen in the longitudinal direction, with the intermediate portion having a first thickness under a load of 0.5 kPa and a first compressed thickness under a load of 2.5 kPa. The rear and front portions each have a second thickness under a load of 0.5 kPa and a second compressed thickness under a load of 2.5 kPa, wherein the second thickness is from 37% to 15% of the first thickness, the second compressed thickness is from 37% to 15% of the first compressed thickness and a ratio between the first and the second compressed thickness under a load of 2.5 kPa is equal or greater than a ratio between the first and the second thickness, under a load of 0.5 kPa.
A urine incontinence pad having first and second longitudinal side edges and front and rear end edges, and the urine incontinence pad comprising a fluid permeable topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core being located between said topsheet and said backsheet, said absorbent core comprising a first core layer and a fluid control layer, said absorbent core in a longitudinal direction having a front portion, a rear portion and an intermediate portion located between said front portion and said rear portion, said first core layer extending over said front portion, said intermediate portion and said rear portion, said first core layer comprises 100 g/m2 superabsorbent material or more, said absorbent core having a varying thickness profile as seen in said longitudinal direction,
