Alopecia, Injected Solution, Hair Growing Back, Now Bald Patch Is Spreading Again, Solution ?

Hi, I was diagnosed with alopeciaa areata 3 months back. I consulted the doctor and he injected me with some solution. The hair are growing back in the area. Now after 3 months the bald patch has started growing slowly and gradually. It was around half inch but now its nearly an inch. Will it stop spreading soon ? Regards, XXXX
