Could I Be Pregnant With Low Hemoglobin Level ?

I am a female of 30 years of age. Whenever I check my HB, I am told it is very low around. What could be the possible causes for this. I usually experience heavy bleeding and lots of clots whenever I am menstruating. What causes this and what is the effect. Can I still get pregnant with low HB level without any problem? Please Help. Thank you.
