The reality is no one knows. We may never findout.
Bigbang and before it is still a mystry. No data to justify wht these scientists are saying. All is only a proposal and talk nothing more to it

At the instant of the Big Bang, all matter was Hydrogen, some of which was converted by sudden cooling in the next few microseconds to form Helium. These are still the most abundant elements in the universe, from which all other elements were derived. Due to the instability of all atoms at that instant, only those with atomic weights of 5 or 8 could survive, leaving just Hydrogen and Helium.
As all matter cooled in the next few seconds, the rest of the elements began to form, and after one or two minutes, most other elements were formed by the decay of Helium. After this, you have to be an astrophysicist to understand the complexities that followed, one of which I am not.

All of the hydrogen in our environment was formed billions of years ago, when cosmic matter condensed into our planet. The Earth is a closed system for matter, meaning that all atoms are recycled over and over again and can never be destroyed/created. So really, the hydrogen here today has been around since then.

Hydrogen is a base element it is very hard to form. Hydrogen is the smallest element however so sometimes when big atoms are split up they theoretically can form hydrogen atoms

Expanding on the previous answers, shortly after the Big-Bang the Universe was very hot and dense. "Matter" existed in the form of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). (Quarks, as you may know, are the constituents of Protons and Neutrons.) As the Universe expanded the QGP condensed and formed into Nucleons (Nuclear particles, essentially). At this point the Universe was too hot for Hydrogen atoms, and was a Plasma of Photons, Nucleons, and Electrons . It expanded and cooled more and this Plasma condensed into Hydrogen atoms.

Originally, from the big bang. New atoms are not created, but recycled when other elements break down.

Formed about 300,000 years after the Big Bang.

They formed when the material from the big bang started to cool.
