[|AI|]  Hi thanks for asking question. The albumin produce from liver. So if liver disease is present then albumin low and compensatory globulin elevated so a/g ratio less. So rule out cirrhosis or other liver problem by USG and viral markers. If excess excretion of albumin occur in urine then also albumin decreased like in nephritic syn Chat Doctor. . Do urine albumin and RFT for that. Sometimes protein loosing osteopathy can lead hypoalbuminemia. So rule out gastrointestinal disorders. Thyrotoxicosis, prolonged chronic infections, prolong fever can lead to hypoalbumin. So yes liver problem can lead low albumin.first rule out it then if liver normal rule out other condition. Take care
