Many things can cause a person to become anemic, but there are three core problems that can cause the condition: 1  Excessive blood loss, such as: 2  Post-surgery recovery. Heavy menstrual cycles. 3  Your body is not producing enough red blood cells, or those produced are unhealthy. Common causes are:  Hormonal issues. Chronic disease.
There are three main causes of anemia: blood loss, lower than normal levels of red blood cell (RBC) production, or higher than normal rates of RBC destruction. More than one of these factors can combine to cause anemia. Blood loss is the most common cause of anemia, particularly iron-deficiency anemia. Blood loss can be short term or persist over time. It can be caused by heavy menstrual periods, bleeding in the digestive or urinary tracts, surgery, trauma, or cancer.
