Yes, a condition called anemia occurs when you have insufficient red blood cells or low levels of hemoglobin. Anemia can be caused by various factors such as iron deficiency, vitamin deficiencies, chronic diseases, or inherited disorders affecting red blood cell production or lifespan. Symptoms may include fatigue, weakness, pale skin, and shortness of breath.
