Not nearly all men, not even a percentage of all soldiers, get the privelige of the gene-therapy to become a Space Marine. You'll already be very fortunate if you survive a single battle as a mere Imperial Guardsman, let alone be worthy of being a potential candidate. So they're certainly not going to augment every single male civilian. Which would be a strain even on the Imperium's limitless resources.
