The goal of this prospective observational study is to provide an Arabic translation of the Acute Cystitis Symptom Score (ACSS) and to test the linguistic validity and clinical reliability of the translated Arabic version of ACCS (Arabic-ACCS) in Arabic-speaking women older than 18 years of age diagnosed with uncomplicated cystitis. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do the questions of the Arabic-ACSS have sufficient clarity? * Can the Arabic-ACCS serve its purpose in identifying the presence of uncomplicated cystitis in Arabic-speaking women? The participant will be asked to fill out the Arabic-ACCS questionnaire at the time of diagnosis. The participants will be asked to fill out the second part of the Arabic-ACCS questionnaire 5-10 days later after receiving the appropriate treatment according to the local health policy as prescribed by the treating physician. Researchers will compare the results from the patients who filled out the first part of the questionnaire with the results of a comparable group of women who were presented with complaints unrelated to the lower urinary tract.
