Abstract
An inframammary pad comprising first component, and a second component. The first component is half-cup shaped to generally conform to the underside of a female breast. The second component is also half-cup shaped to generally conform to the first component. The first and second components are foldably attached at their respective bottoms. When used with a brassiere, the first component can be placed on the inner lower portion of the cup of the brassiere with the fold proximal to the underwire (or band if brassiere is wireless) and the second component folds up over the outer lower portion of the cup of the brassiere such that the brassiere is sandwiched between the first and second components.

A moisture absorbency pad for use with a brassiere for a user having skin, the brassiere having a cup portion that has a lower half that has an inner side and an outer side, the absorbency pad comprising:
- a first component and a second component wherein the first component is generally half-cup shaped to generally conform to the inner side and the second component is generally half-cup shaped to generally conform to the outer side;
- a first bottom of the first component is integrally foldable to a second bottom of the second component such that when folded the two components sandwich at least a portion of the lower half,
- wherein the first and second components are comprised of at least one layer having an insulative or barrier surface to interface with the brassiere and a contact surface as being configured to interface with the skin surface of the user.
An absorbent pad for use with a person having skin and a breast with an underside, the absorbent pad comprising
- a first component that is generally half cup-shaped to generally conform to the underside and a second component that is generally half cup-shaped and generally conforms to the first component, wherein the first and second components are comprised of at least one layer;
- and
- wherein the first component comprises a first bottom, a first insulative or barrier surface, and a first surface that will be proximal to the skin and the second component comprises a second bottom, a second insulative or barrier surface, and a second contact surface that is configured to interface with the skin and wherein the first bottom is integrally foldable to the second bottom at a fold.
