It is hard to believe. However, it's mentioned in the novel that their religion doesn't allow things like artificial insemination or fertility testing (or even screening for birth defects) as that would be interfering with God's plan, basically. The most pious believers of this religion would not be questioning the commanders' fertility because that would be admitting that the men in control have a weakness.
