Answer #1

the sad thing is that its probably hereditory…not your fault and also nothing that you can really do about it.

Answer #2

Your body is not producing enough red blood cells. You may have either Iron deficiency anemia, which is treatable with ferrous sulfate (iron pills), pernicious anemia, which is treatable with B12 injections or you may be losing blood somewhere in your body. Your doctor will need to do blood tests to determine what is causing it.
