Wasn't the same true for sorceresses

Geralt's mother was a sorcereress. Sterility and birth defects are a side effect of long term magic use and alchemy but not 100%

Okay, I remembered it being a thing but wasn't 100% sure on the details. Been a while since I read the books. I remember it being a major thing with Yennefer, she was similarly infertile like Geralt and also wanted a child

The sorceresses in geralt's mother's generation were made sterile but not in a physical way, she figured out how to circumvent that and have Geralt. So in Yennefer's generation Aretuza removed the womb from their graduates.
