Even the hydrogen could have been through one or more stars in the past.

It could, I suppose, although I would think that each trip through a star would make it more probable to get converted into a heavier element. In other words, I don't think that hydrogen would pass through multiple lifetimes of stars without being made into other stuff, i.e., the total quantity of hydrogen in the Universe will decrease over time as other heavier elements increase.
