A disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body and having a chassis, a non-removable absorbent core component disposed in a crotch region of the chassis, and one or more replaceable absorbent core component or components disposed in capillary liquid communication with the non-removable absorbent core component. The replaceable absorbent core component may be removed and a like component may be substituted in place of the removed component without the removal of the absorbent article from the wearer. The replaceable absorbent core component may be disposed inside an openable chassis pocket, with access for its removal and replacement provided by an aperture in a garment-facing layer, an openable end of an external pocket, or an openable end of an internal pocket formed at an area of a waist end edge where the garment-facing layer and a wearer-facing layer may be separated.

What is claimed is: 1. A disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body, comprising: a chassis forming a waist opening and a pair of leg openings and having longitudinally opposing first and second waist end edges, longitudinally opposing first and second waist
What is claimed is: 1. A disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body, comprising: a chassis forming a waist opening and a pair of leg openings and having longitudinally opposing first and second waist end edges, longitudinally opposing first and second waist regions adjacent to the respective waist end edges, and a crotch region longitudinally intermediate of the waist regions; a non-removable absorbent core component disposed in the crotch region; and a first replaceable absorbent core component disposed in capillary liquid communication with the non-removable absorbent core component, wherein the non-removable absorbent core component comprises absorbent layers and the first replaceable absorbent core component is disposed between the absorbent layers. 2. A disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body, comprising: a chassis forming a waist opening and a pair of leg openings and having longitudinally opposing first and second waist end edges, longitudinally opposing first and second waist regions adjacent to the respective waist end edges, and a crotch region longitudinally intermediate of the waist regions; a non-removable absorbent core component disposed in the crotch region; and a first replaceable absorbent core component disposed in capillary liquid communication with the non-removable absorbent core component, wherein the first replaceable absorbent core component has an outer end, an opposing inner end, a substantially rectangular portion adjacent to the outer end, and a convergingly tapered portion having two non-intersecting sides connecting the substantially rectangular portion and the inner end. 3. A disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body, comprising: a chassis forming a waist opening and a pair of leg openings and having longitudinally opposing first and second waist end edges, longitudinally opposing first and second waist regions adjacent to the respective waist end edges, and a crotch region longitudinally intermediate of the waist regions; and a non-removable absorbent core component disposed in the crotch region; wherein the chassis forms a first openable pocket extending from the first waist region into and ending in the crotch region and adapted to receive an absorbent insert, and wherein the chassis comprises a wearer-facing layer and a gannent-facing layer forming the first openable pocket and the first openable pocket has an innermost end located in the crotch region and formed by an area of attachment of the wearer-facing layer, the garment-facing layer, and the non-removable absorbent core component. 4. A disposable absorbent insert adapted for use in a disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body, comprising a first absorbent layer having an outer end having a width, an opposing inner end having a width smaller than the width of the outer end, a substantially rectangular portion adjacent to the outer end having a width substantially the same as the width of the outer end, and a tapered portion having two non-intersecting sides connecting the substantially rectangular portion and the inner end. 5. The disposable absorbent insert of claim 4 having an outer end having a width, an opposing inner end having a width smaller than the width of the outer end, a substantially rectangular portion adjacent to tho outer end having a width substantially the same as the width of the outer end, and a tapered portion having two non-intersccting sides connecting the substantially rectangular portion and the inner end. 6. The disposable absorbent insert of claim 4 having an end and comprising a pull tab extending from the end. 7. A disposable absorbent insert adapted for use in a disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body, the disposable absorbent insert having two opposing insert ends and comprising: a first absorbent layer comprising an absorbent gelling material and having an outer end having a width, an opposing inner end having a width smaller than the width of the outer end, a substantially rectangular portion adjacent to the outer end having a width substantially the same as the width of the outer end, and a tapered portion having two non-intersecting sides connecting the substantially rectangular portion and the inner end; a portion comprising a liquid permeable covering sheet; and a pull tab extending from one of the insert ends. 8. A method for using a disposable absorbent insert adapted for use in a disposable absorbent article adapted to be worn about a lower torso of a human body, the absorbent insert comprising a first absorbent layer having an outer end having a width, an opposing inner end having a width smaller than the width of the outer end, a substantially rectangular portion adjacent to the outer end having a width substantially the same as the width of the outer end, and a tapered portion having two non-intersecting sides connecting the substantially rectangular portion and the inner end, the method comprising the step of inserting the absorbent insert into the absorbent article, removing the absorbent insert from the absorbent article, or replacing the absorbent insert by removing the absorbent insert from the absorbent article and inserting a like replacement absorbent insert into the absorbent article.
