Possible to force a birth?

I have only 2 remaining Baktrios FMs, one of them had 2 daughters and the other none at all. This aggravates me, as he has a mistress, herbalist and a trait that gives +2 (I think) to fertility, yet he is 49 years old and nothing (no flaccid trait or anything like it)

Their father died at like 72, had over 25 battles, subdued Saka, killed the Seleukid King and many more nice things, so I would not like it if his name died with the 2 bureaucrat brats.

Is there anything I could do to force them?

I'm afraid not! Well, you could try to give him as much ancillaries increasing the chance of birth (I believe those exist) as possible, but it's no guarantee.

I already gave him the mistress and herbalist and he has not succeeded yet :(

I can't give him a doctor. I could only swap him for the herbalist, but I see no point. Are there any others? because I can't find any on my other FM.

edit: I checked again and I feel so cheated! he has the fruitful, healthy wife, won't take no for an answer traits plus the herbalist and mistress. That is +6 fertility!

I guess it's just not ment to be :)

There is a ratio in RTW about FM's/regions occupied, so if you have just the starting province, you probably won't get another birth (or adoption) until one of them dies. Expanding helps a lot, or you can try to bribe a FM from another faction.
