An absorbent article comprising: an absorbent main body including a liquid-absorbent absorbent core and a liquid-impermeable film, the liquid-impermeable film being provided on a non-skin side with respect to the absorbent core; an exterior member (1030, 1040) that is provided on a non-skin side with respect to the absorbent main body; and an indicator that exhibits a predetermined reaction upon contact with an excreted fluid, at least one of sheet members that constitute the exterior member being a hydrophilic nonwoven fabric (1032, 1042), the hydrophilic nonwoven fabric (1032, 1042) and the liquid-impermeable film at least partially overlap each other when viewed in a thickness direction, the hydrophilic nonwoven fabric (1032, 1042) being arranged on a non-skin side with respect to the liquid-impermeable film in the thickness direction, the indicator being arranged on a skin side with respect to the liquid-impermeable film in the thickness direction, wherein the exterior member (1030, 1040) includes a front waist portion and a back waist portion, the front waist portion is joined to a one side of the absorbent main body in a lengthwise direction, the back waist portion is joined to another side of the absorbent main body in the lengthwise direction, two lateral side portions of the front waist portion and two lateral side portions of the back waist portion are connected to each other in a state where the absorbent main body is folded one time at a predetermined position in the lengthwise direction, and the hydrophilic nonwoven fabric (1032, 1042) is arranged in at least one of the front waist portion and the back waist portion on the non-skin side, wherein in at least one of the front waist portion and the back waist portion, the absorbent article has a portion in which the hydrophilic nonwoven fabric (1032, 1042) and the indicator overlap each other when viewed in the thickness direction, and wherein concerning a number of overlaid sheet members located on a non-skin side with respect to the indicator in a region where the indicator and the hydrophilic nonwoven fabric (1032, 1042) overlap each other when viewed in the thickness direction, concerning a number of overlaid sheet members located on the non-skin side with respect to the indicator in a region where the indicator and the hydrophilic nonwoven fabric (1032, 1042) do not overlap each other when viewed in the thickness direction, the former is larger than the latter. an absorbent main body including a liquid-absorbent absorbent core and a liquid-impermeable film, the liquid-impermeable film being provided on a non-skin side with respect to the absorbent core;
