I’ll ELI14: Your balls (testicles) have tubes (vas deferens/ductus deferens) that carry the swimmers (sperm) into the body to get mixed with the rest of your jizz (seamen) before you blow your wad (ejaculation). They cut those tubes and tie them off so you still jizz but you’re shooting blanks cause their are no swimmers in the stick stuff.

If they need to they sometimes can untie and reconnect them. And if they can’t they can often extract sperm if someone changes their mind down the road, but that is not 100% guaranteed. So while there is a good chance it’s not completely irreversible, it should be considered and thought about and not done on a whim.
