Sonographer what undergraduate degree??
Hii so I googled and it said it to do the post graduate degree in sonography u need a undergraduate in a relevant degree such as “health science, radiography, nursing or midwifery.”
If I did a undergraduate in pharmacology can I still apply for sonography post graduate degree? Or does it not count as a relevant degree
If it isn’t would biomedical science count as a relevant degree?

I do eye-to-eye with the information you've got from Google. Still, I would suggest you contact the admission team of your preferred universities because only they can assist you with the correct information about whether they'll be able to offer you a place for the course you're looking for.
Sonographers are trained from NHS healthcare professionals, such as nurses, radiographers etc. It's not something you go directly into as a graduate job.
Pharmacology is not a healthcare professions course, it's a science degree. It would be unsuitable for this aim. Biomedical sciences is also a science degree, not a healthcare professions course (although an IBMS accredited biomedical sciences course is the first step towards becoming a professional biomedical scientist, however as they are not clinical but lab based staff I doubt that would be a suitable background to become a sonographer).
Note that you don't, to my understanding, apply directly to sonography postgraduate degree courses. You need to be working in the NHS and apply to train as a sonographer internally and they will arrange for you to take the relevant course. I may be wrong about this but I've not heard of people just doing it separately and then applying to sonographer roles with no clinical experience whatsoever.

Also I have merged your two identical threads. Please do not create duplicate threads in different forums.
Entry onto sonography training courses usually requires at least a couple of years experience post-qualification. Applicants are usually nurses, midwives, diagnostic radiographers and therapeutic radiographers, and it takes an additional couple of years of study/training (so min ~7 years from starting your degree). If you're lucky/good your trust may even pay you to do it.
Be warned, due to the limited number of slots, with lots of applicants, It is VERY competitive.
