No. The hydrogen in the universe was formed during the Big Bang. Stars consume hydrogen, fusing it into helium.

Where were helium and and hydrogen formed?
Hydrogen was initially formed in the 'Big Bang' which initiated this universe. Helium is formed by the fusion of hydrogen atoms, inside stars. This reaction is what causes stars to shine, and give off heat.
When is hydrogen found?
Hydrogen is found in the sun and most of the stars, and is easily the most abundant element in the universe.
Is it true that Hydrogen and Helium were formed by nuclear reaction in the stars and other elements were formed after the Big Bang?
Close, but not exactly. Hydrogen is not formed by nuclear reactions in stars, hydrogen was formed not long after the Big Bang, when the expanding universe had cooled sufficiently that an electron and a proton could combine to form a hydrogen atom. Helium and all the other elements that are heavier than hydrogen, were formed by the process of nuclear fusion, in stars.
Why do all stars need Hydrogen and Helium?
Because without hydrogen and helium, stars wouldn't shine, not even the faintest stars! And plus if you mix them two together, there is a bang e.g helium balloon and and fire=BANG! Stars are made up of those two so that means they are a colossal fire ball, like the sun.Imagine it this way, a star was a massive helium balloon and someone got a fire burning stick and set it to this balloon, then there was a bang which is lasting millions of years!Eventually, the bang stops then this balloon explodes with energy and that's the end of that!

What planet could hydrogen be from?
Hydrogen is not from any planet. Hydrogen was formed in the earliest times of the universe. It is primordial. 78% of ordinary matter in the universe is Hydrogen with most of the rest being Helium. As time went on clouds of hyrdrogen collapsed and formed stars. In the centre of these stars the hydrogen and helium were converted to other elements like silicon and oxygen and iron. It is from these elements that planets were formed later. So far from hydrogen being from a planet, planets are made from hydrogen.
Where did most of the elements heavier than Hydrogen and Helium form in the Universe?
Other elements were formed in stars by nucleosynthesis.
Why is there lots of hydrogen in the universe?
Because it is the simplest atom, and when the pure energy released at the big bang condensed into matter, it formed subatomic particles, which formed into hydrogen. The hydrogen then got turned into other things by stars.
What two elements are found in stars?
hydrogen and helium. More than just these two elements can be found in stars, though, otherwise we would live in a universe comprised completely of hydrogen and helium.
How are elements formed?
Hydrogen and helium were formed shortly after the creation of the universe (when the protons and alpha particles combined with electrons). Everything else was formed within the core of stars (by fusion reactions).
How is it possible to know that the element hydrogen exists throughout the universe?
We see the light of main sequence stars throughout the universe. Such stars fuse hydrogen.
Which is the Element abundantly present in the universe especially in stars?
Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, making up 75% of ...Thiselement is found in great abundance in stars and gas giant planets.
How are elements formed from hydrogen?
Heavier elements are formed from hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, through a process called nuclear fusion. There are machines or structures in the universe that do this, and we call them stars. It is the process within stars, stellar nucleosynthesis, that allows heavier elements to be created up through iron. Elements heavier than iron are formed in supernova events.
