The present invention relates to a menstrual fluid management device that is
attached directly to the wearer by use of an adhesive. The device allows for direct
and immediate containment of menstrual and other vaginal discharges. In particular,
the device improves the prevention of soiling over devices already known in the
art by using an attachment flange around an orifice which has a shape of the generally
oblong dimensions, where the width in the rear end of the orifice is wider than
at the front end, thereby improving the circumscription of the female genitalia
and the sealing along the flange to the skin of the wearer.
