As Timaca says, low platelets (aka thrombocytopenia) comes immediately to mind.

There are other causes of clotting disorders that might be more common that low platelets, but a simple CBC is a cheap test - I've seen it in the U.S. for ~$30, no doctor visit needed.

Other possibilities: use of aspirin, fish oil, gingko, vit E.
