Brief Answer:
Penetrox kit will not be effective.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Penetrox knot kit is not an effective remedy for abortion. You can take MTP kit available for abortion within 49 days of conception but before using it you should be sure about the pregnancy. So I advise you to confirm pregnancy by Urine Pregnancy Testing kit available in the market.
If it comes positive then you can go for abortion with Medical termination of Pregnancy kit (MTP). This kit contains 1 tablet of mifepristone and 4 tablets of misoprostol. First you have to take 1 tablet of mifepristone. After 24 hours to 36 hours interval, you should take 2 tablets of misoprostol either orally or vaginally. Most of the time bleeding starts after 2 tablets only. If bleeding does not happen then you should take another 2 misoprostol tablets. After using MTP it is advisable to go for Ultrasonography after a week to confirm complete abortion.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
