Answer
Hello, the doctor would like to answer the question: “Why does cirrhosis have to increase protein, while decompensated must reduce protein? The amount of albumin in the blood is reduced, depending on the degree of cirrhosis, the amount of protein will decrease more or less. Albumin replacement therapy should be performed under the guidance of a physician.
