A sanitary napkin with laterally projecting positioning tabs. The adhesive securement system of the sanitary napkin includes three adhesive zones in a spaced apart relationship, namely one zone on the main body of the sanitary napkin and one zone on the undergarment facing surface of each positioning tab. A quick-remove peelable protective layer covers the adhesive zones when the sanitary napkin is not in use. The protective layer includes a primary release strip extending longitudinally on the sanitary napkin to cover the adhesive zone on the main body and a transversal secondary release strip overlaying the adhesive zones on the positioning tabs. This arrangement allows to remove the entire protective layer in a single peel-off stroke. The invention also relates to a method and apparatus for folding a positioning tab of the sanitary napkin over its main body during a packaging operation that inserts the sanitary napkin in a disposable pouch. The method comprises the steps of creating a crease in the transverse release strip of the protective layer, near the juncture between the positioning tab and the main body of the sanitary napkin. The transverse release strip is made of sufficiently rigid paper material so the crease maintains the positioning tab in a folded condition during the packaging operation.
