I had penile inversion 7 years ago.
I have a clitoral hood. Obviously, I can't compare the experience to a cis experience, but what I can say is that my clitoris is far more sensitive than it was before bottom surgery. I put that down to it being under a hood and lubricated now (I was circumcised previously). Of note though, I had basically no sensitivity at all there for the first couple of months after surgery, as they nerves recovered
Yes, I lubricate. I'm not sure what my surgeon did exactly, but I lubricate. I don't believe that is true of all penile inversion though, so it's worth researching/questioning your specific surgeon and their previous patients.
Similar, but not the same? Texture wise, very similar, but the main difference is that my vaginal walls are less flexible and stretchy
One thing I will add though. I ended up having complications, and scarring, so I lost a lot of my depth. But even so, for me, it's still so much better than what I had before! 10/10 would do again
The lubrication comes from the Cowper's glands, I'm the same. I was able to have penetrative sex once without lube because of extended foreplay.
