I after taking anti fungal, steriod injection and using minioxidil and now using prednisolone oral 30mg daily still my alopecia patches are growing on ?

Alopecia areata: If this is the diagnosis that you have been given, not all patients respond to treatment. I would not continue oral steroids for a long. Of time since they can have significant side effects. You need to see your doctor and discuss what is happening.
