Brief Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCm

Detailed Answer:
In most cases it can be seen in healthy people and is determined by genetics so some people may have "thinner" blood than other. However, soemtimes it can be sign of some disorders such as coagualtion disorders or liver and kidney diseases. For the beginning you should do some blood tests: prothrombine time, coagulation factors, trombocyte count. If this is fine, you should check your liver and kidney function. Some drugs can cause it as well.
Wish you good health. Feel free to ask. Regards
