Even after a successful recovery from an Ebola infection, semen may contain the virus for at least two months.[5]
Breast milk may contain the virus for two weeks after recovery, and
transmission of the disease to a consumer of the breast milk may be
possible.[6] By October 2014 it was suspected that handling a piece of contaminated paper may be enough to contract the disease.[7]

2014 Ebola virus epidemic in Liberia
In order to prevent the Ebola infection in a sexual partner it is important not to have sex with or sexual intercourse with a sexual partner for over two months after recovering from the Ebola Virus in order to protect your sexual partner and everyone else they know and touch.
Also, it is important not to nurse a baby for at least 2 weeks after recovering from the Ebola Virus so the baby doesn't get Ebola also.
Also, it mentioned that Vaginal fluids also contain Ebola after recovery as well. However, I didn't see more information on that in regards to a time limit.
