Abstract

The present invention makes it possible to enhance the effect of supporting a pelvic bottom muscle, preventing pelvic organ prolapse, and improving lymph flowing, and to provide a soft touch feeling at the time of wearing. This pelvic bottom muscle support clothing 10 is formed of a knitted material, and has a crotch part 13 formed of a three-layer structure including an outer knitted fabric 131, an inner knitted fabric 132, and an intermediate layer 133 therebetween. An annular bulging part 134 is formed by the intermediate layer 133 having a prescribed thickness. The inner knitted fabric 132, which is a portion that is brought into contact with the peripheral portion of the external genital organs of a woman, is formed to have a soft contact feeling to the skin, and moreover, the annular bulging part 134 has high cushioning properties. Therefore, it is possible to increase the pressing force to the peripheral portion of the external genital organs while easing the local feeling of pressure. It is also possible to promote the lymph flowing, and further enhance the preventive effect for lymphedema or the like.
